Add to that the fact that he's very empathetic, so intense situations, whether real life or movies or the written word, can overwhelm him, and you end up with a kid that still needs some protection until he learns how to build the barriers that we all have. It's for these reasons that i want to limit some of what he reads to things that are more appropriate to him at this time.
Another possible option is to sit with him while he's picking out what eBooks to buy.
