[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again- thanks for the many helpful comments.   I too read Flowers in the Attic (every book!) but Incan guarantee that the fanfic does not compare. If it were like that I would ignore it.  DD does well (like a 3.4 or something) but she spends more time reading the fanfic than she does at schoolwork.  So i do worry it is a bit of an addiction.  I realize the male on male comment sounds homophobic- I am lgbt supportive- but the stories feel particularly violent. And I guess I am concerned that it doesn't include her- a female perspective. I have considered telling her she can read any book she wants but that the invetted stuff online is not ok.  [/quote]

The Harry Potter Fan Fiction can get pretty darn graphic and there is a decently large percentage that writes about Harry losing the war and there is a lot of violent rape in those stories. Some of the stories are consensual relationships between Harry and Voldemort/Snape/ Malfoy, there are a good number of stories where the relationships are violent and non-consensual. They can be quite graphic and unsettling. There is a good amount of vanilla but I would say that there is a surprising high level of incest (Wesley's are popular with this) and non-consensual relationship (mainly Harry loses but sometimes Harry wins). And there is the whole mess of marriage laws requiring polygamy that the Ministry sets up but is borderline consensual (make babies with 5 men or go to Azkaban).

Yes, I read Harry Potter fan fiction, it is all sorts of crazy what people put out there. The ratio of vanilla/consensual to non-consensual is pretty close.

No idea on how to handle it with a teen but just confirming that there is a lot of disturbing material on the Harry Potter sites. I imagine other fandoms are similar.[/quote]
