That's interesting! I love history, and WWII is one of my favorite eras. I fell in love with The Diary of Anne Frank at the age of 10, and have read just about everything I can get my hands on concerning the Holocaust - even though I sometimes feel odd watching a Holocaust film or a bio on say, Eva Braun.

As for schools, I think that if a parent has a major problem with a certain text, the student should either be assigned something different (which makes him or her a freak in class) or go to a private school.
