Forever...

We finished our discussion Judy Blume's book, Forever..., in my adolescent literature class. For those of you who haven't read it, it's basically porn for tween girls. Perfect families, practical sex talk, she names her boyfriend's penis Ralph (the name comes up surprisingly often). I don't consider myself a prude, but I can't decide if I'd let my teenage daughter read books like this. On one hand, I guess it's informative and empowering. On the other hand, it is pretty sexual.
