Some of those fairy tales seem like rough fare for children. I wonder if scientific studies have been done that compare the subsequent lives of children who are read different kinds of books as toddlers.

In my experience children are tough as nails, but there are limits. What about television and computer games. A modern kid is likely to spend way more time on those than in reading books.

My parents read us all those old fairy tales and we were not damag.... Oh wait! Maybe that explains a lot.
