Well none if you believe like I do that simply reading a book or watching a show makes you into something. And it's not at all what I said anyway so I am not sure why you quoted me GW.

But what you read does have an influence on you. Everyone of us is the sum of all our experiences after all. And it's not totally irrational for parents to be concerned about what their children read. But there are better ways to guide your child then banning books. Perhaps *gasp* read the book with your child and use it as a lesson in the differences between fantasy and reality. But that's more work.
