  • My gut reaction is to agree with you. But at the same time I wonder if it’s far easier for me to take this stance because it’s very unlikely that I will ever be the target of any kind of abuse. I sit in a very safe position, very much in a majority in almost any way other than things I can choose. So despite my first thought being much the same as yours I can’t by election but think I should instead listen to other voices around me?







  • I can’t find nd my copy of the books but did find this quote from C.S Lewis

    “Peter gets back to Narnia in it. I am afraid Susan does not. Haven’t you noticed in the two you have read that she is rather fond of being too grownup? I am sorry to say that side of her got stronger and she forgot about Narnia.”

    It’s just such a narrow attitude to children growing up. I love how Philip Pullman covers the same subject by celebrating the change from child to adult (or young adult). C.S Lewis is seems angry that childhood ends and children might have the audacity to change.
