[quote=Anonymous]I'm an English teacher, and I think your approach is a mistake. While you can widen your child's experience with various forms of literature, discouraging and being narrow-minded about the one that they have shown passion toward will hurt their relationship with you and perhaps also their desire to read. What is the point of "banning" or discouraging comicbooks? Do you realize how many comic books are based on mythology from around the world? Do you know how many well known writers and artists contribute to graphic novels? Do you know how many of these explore deep philosophical questions about what it means to be human? Talk to your kids about what they are reading, whatever it is. Don't go in with an agenda.[/quote]
