I'd just like to point out that if the book talked about people murdering or even torturing each other in graphic detail, I doubt any of the parents would have batted an eye.
I think they did. That's why there arent any books about gratuitous torture in the curriculum anymore (that I can think of).
As for murder, I think by 14 almost everyone knows that people die and sometimes other people cause it.
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
