Sometimes people don't know what the books are. Sometimes it's just someone who won't shut up about them. There are always rumblings about a movie; the thought of the trailers makes my skin crawl.

Where does the cut-off come in, though? I'll use the generic "Bad Thing" here to de-emotionalize this a bit: If a Bad Thing happens to an adult, you're saying that we don't need to prohibit books about that Bad Thing because the adult is capable of self-protection. Likewise, you say that if a Bad Thing happens to a child, we shouldn't expose that child to further examples of the Bad Thing. But what about if a Bad Thing happened to a child who is now an adult? Are they treated, in this case, as an adult or a child?

Inside every problem is a bigger problem struggling to get out.
