… And girls shouldn’t read big books like that. It’s too thick. Boys don’t like girls who read thick books. You want boys to like you, don’t you? …
Miss B has just finished reading the sixth Harry Potter book (and if she asks me to read the part where Harry kisses Ginny again, I may scream), and all I can say is, if big books make girls into lesbians, then get in the car, honey, we’re goin to the library! Lesbians won’t make you a teenage mom.
But seriously; what freaking kind of freaking mother would tell her daughter that? You’re supposed to freaking nurture and teach, and model, you complete and total yutz. I haven’t read the Traveling Pants books, but I hear they’re pretty good. Miss B seems to enjoy fantasy, though, so I’ll leave her to whatever she finds. In my house, whatever she wants to read she’s allowed; some of the books I’ve “proofread” ( just like my dad proofread my comics ).
