No one - except the rabid, agenda-driven, mind-raping pulpit pundits who have never opened a book in their pathetic little lives, sadly.
Your lucky you don't have kids of your own! Do you not care about them reading harmful things? What about things that are extraordinary violent or pornographic? You'd let them read/watch them? Crazy..
Fortunately Harry Potter is neither of those things. I might permit it.. as long as they know witches and wizards are not ok in real life!!
Go away troll/poe. You bring nothing of value to the forum. Not even comic relief.
