Quote by pernoelFairy tales does indeed contain violence, and quite often sexual warnings too. But fairy tales have and important part to play in raising children.

A couple of months ago, I finished reading a little funny book, "The science of the Discworld II: The Globe" by T. Pratchett, I. Stewart & J. Cohen. In this book, a mix between a novel and scientific stuff, the authors explain why we should not be called "homo sapiens" but "pan narrans," "storytelling apes." We keep on telling stories. Some are called tales, others stories, history and so on. And these tales, along with other rites of passage are parts of what you may call a "make a human" kit...

... I guess it's all about being reasonable, being sensible and not mixing fiction and reality. Now, if you ask me, I think there are stuff I wouldn't show to my kids until they reach some age. I'd rather make them imagine things, use their own brain on fairy tales than be consumers of pre-canned stories.

Well, first, I would have to make kids
