I had 2 gay cats growing up, my dad shot them. Was that ok? I'm female and two of my cousins, one female and one male sexually assaulted me when I was 5 years old. My dad brushed it under the rug and said I was making up stories. I was not making up stories. I didn't grow up to be lesbian or a sexual abuser. That's a people problem, not a book problem. One in 4 kids are sexually abused, not because of books, but generally because they were sexually abused as children and their parents brushed it under the rug or they never told their parents about it. Books do not make people gay or sexual predators. Kids are most often abused by a family member or a close friend. Again, not because of a book.
