[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the whole topic is disgusting. Kids killing kids??? No, my 9 yr old will NOT be seeing this movie. I keep her movies to those that are G or PG. [/quote] I agree the topic is awful, I resisted for a long time and gave in this last summer. There were a few points where I had to put the books down because it just felt too awful, but I also found they held a lot of humanity. I have to say I have suggested to quite a few people that maybe this is a topic mature kids can and should handle. While I was reading the books I thought a lot about the child soldiers in Africa and at the time what was happening in Libya and Syria. I have not let my 10 year read or see the books, but I fully anticipate doing them as a mediated read aloud sooner than later. Frankly it is a luxury that we can debate exposing our kids to these issues. [/quote]
