[QUOTE="spinandslide, post: 804701, member: 5559"] I have a son who is about at the age to read this book...iwhen he does, when we come across those words, Im sure questions would arise and me, being a PARENT, would address them and explain why,while they are not considered "good" words now, were in fact words used when this book was written. I feel it shows a progression in the general feel and mindset of the population from then til now and I would see this as a time to EDUCATE children. I dont understand this sheltering, censorship role that adults feel they must play over children these days..it is disgusting and IMO, stems from the general lack of parenting going on out there..people would just as soon have a TV raise their child..heaven forbid they have to be a friggin parent.
