When I was around 12, I went on a Clive Barker bender and read most of the local library's stock of those. Violent deaths on every other page, graphic descriptions of homo- and heterosexual activities and some incredibly colourful curses. I add this (mainly off-topic comment) to say that: (i) if I wasn't warped by that material (you'll have to take my word on that) when I was 12, I don't think even the most innocent 15 year old would blink at anything in Card's book or in any PG movie based on it; and (ii) my parents were clearly not paying enough attention to my media consumption, even after I turned in a book report on Barker's The Hellbound Heart.
