Do you have any nieces, nephews or younger cousins? You can always introduce them to the series you love and bond over them

[(Anonymous)]

I was going to say the same. I probably won't have kids, but I plan on introducing kids in my family/circle of close friends to the series. Sadly right now it's just down to my sister's kid who won't read. (Her parents say she likes to read, but I don't think they know what reading is.)

From someone who can recall discovering the joys of reading around the age of 11, there's the sort of reading where you sit and look at a book that is more pictures than words, and then there's reading where you sit with a novel an inch thick that has not a single picture in it, and solidly reading it for several hours.

Is the former the sort of "reading" your sister's kid does?

This is what I'll do with my niece when she's old enough.

OP

Hahhhhhh...hahah.... I have 2 nieces that I am not allowed to see anymore. I fondly remember the day when I took the first Harry Potter movie over there to let them watch it, and then my brother gave the girls the "you know that magic isn't real, right?" speech that his church had crammed down his throat.

8 and 12 year old girls. I was embarrassed. They were scared.

Ayrt

Oh, fuck OP, that is terrible. I'm so sorry. I hope you can resolve that mess and see them again. Do you have any friends with children?

[(Anonymous)]

OP

Nope.

[(Anonymous)]

Well fuck. You could always volunteer at a hospital and visit sick children. Brighten up their days and share stuff with them.

[nyvz]

Ugh, trust me, I know that feel OP.

Definitely see if you can volunteer or give away some of your books to local libraries or day cares. You may not know the kids who pick up what you read or loved, but you know they are out there for them to find.

Ugh! Let me tell you, from someone who had a great grasp on what is fictional and what isn't, I really wonder how parents can let their kids get to those ages without teaching them the concept of fiction, and the concept of magic=fiction as well!

But then I get itchy when I hear of Christian people having freakouts about "Magic! Oh noes!" and "Devils! Oh noes!" etc. Usually they are only freaking out about really superficial details and not even considering that maybe the story under those details is a good moral story.
