Hi Becky -- welcome!  Of course, the above qualifies as "fightin' words"
to one of the "list-moms" (me)!  JKR has repeatedly said that she didn't
write the books targeted at children.  They aren't just children's
books.  If they were, would we all really be here?  <g>  This is all
mucho condensed from my usual diatribes on this subject (mainly because I
have gestational carpal tunnel syndrome -- very fun).  Anyway ... there
will be a FAQ on this topic soon & you can read all my usual arguments
then.

this topic like usual, right??!)
