If you don...I'm strongly against banning books. If you don't agree with something that is in a book, don't read it, but you you have no right to keep others from reading it. Parents have the responsibility of knowing what is right for their own kids, but not others kids. I'm a school psychologist and I am always telling parents and people in general, if you are concerned about what is in a book, instead of forbidding your kid to read it, read it yourself!!! Your kid, or your kid's friends, or classmates are going through all of these things (well except for maybe being a vampire ;) ), so instead of making the topics taboo, talk to them about it. Talk about why it is a bad decision for two characters to have sex too soon.
