I’m with you. I let one of my sons read Khaled Hosseini’s “A Thousand Splendid Suns” for a book report, and the teacher was upset/concerned he would talk about a rape scene in his oral report. This was a 13 year old boy – while he was emotionally ready to read that book, and that scene, I guarantee you he would never get up in class and go into that scene! He would have been mortified!
