Dd1 has brought home a couple of books from the library that look to be rubbishy copies of Twilight-type books; suitable for teens maybe. I've had a flick through and there's one ref to the boy and girl having a snog on the bed, him with a hard-on then they are caught out.
I'm really rubbish at knowing what's suitable or not as my mum wasnt around when I was 11 and my dad didn't notice what I was reading. Therefore I was reading the Godfather at 12!! But I was also very wild and acted very inappropriately for much of my teens.
We're very open with dd1 and we're not embarrassed about talking about sex etc or answering any questions she has. But what are other 11 year olds reading? She's a good reader btw and has read adult texts like Room and Wuthering Heights. I think the much darker stuff goes over her head mostly.
