A thought-provoking quote from Time magazine's review of The Hunger Games (a popular dystopian young adult novel which I'm currently reading).
"The Hunger Games and Catching Fire expose children to exactly the kind of violence we usually shield them from. But that just goes to show how much adults forget about what it's like to be a child. Kids are physical creatures, and they're not stupid. They know all about violence and power and raw emotions. What's really scary is when adults pretend that such things don't exist."
