Darkness to visible


 The Article called "Darkness to visible" By Megan Cox Gurdon. In this article it talks about how young adult literature can be dark for teens. On page 1 paragraph 3 it talks about "How dark is contemporary fiction for teens? This means that teens are reading about kidnapping and pederasty, incest and brutal beatings. It also says that just part of the run of things in novels are directed, broadly speaking. That children from ages of 12-18 are reading these violent books that are still not for them.

The Author addresses that “Entertainment does not merely graffiti taste, after all, but it creates it. MCG supports her opinion that if you think it matters what’s inside a young person’s mind, surely it; is of consequences what he reads. Also this is old dialectic- purity vs. despoliation virtue vs. smut- but for families with teenagers, it is also everlasting new.

I agree with MCG because teens look for a book or video games and then they get it into their brains and then they act it just like in the movies and they put everybody in danger and get into more trouble.
