Sativa_Rose 04/28/17 4:53:05 AM #3:	Does this include Romeo and Juliet adaptations? Kind of a tangent but I do think that R&J shouldn't be in the high school curriculum. It shouldn't be banned or anything, but there's plenty of other good Shakespeare out there to replace it with that doesn't have teen suicide as a huge part of the story. --- I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister. <cite>Sativa_Rose posted [p:878062286] in 13 Reasons...

It shouldn't be banned or anything, but there's plenty of other good Shakespeare out there to replace it with that doesn't have teen suicide as a huge part of the story. When I was at high school we did Othello, where (spoilers) yes there is still suicide. Though not teen suicide. I am a New Zealander if that was not clear. Not sure if Romeo and Juliet are covered for the Shakespeare section of English class. It is up to the school/teacher to decide which play out of several choices to teach --- 3DS fc 2363-5810-2795 "I've said a lot of things before." - Bok, 2014 <cite>DEKMStephens posted [p:878062373] in 13 Reasons...

DuffBeer 04/28/17 6:04:28 AM #10:	I didn't expect the show to be as raw and realistic as it was. I've watched just about all the teen dramas over the years and the most accurate portrayal of the fucked up shit teens go through was Degrassi; this blew that shit right out of the water. Definitely worthy of its TV-MA rating and the push for awareness about who watches it, but I ultimately disagree with the criticisms that it glorifies suicide or mishandles the aftermath and coping with rape. --- http://i.imgur.com/meVaXd0.png <cite>DuffBeer posted [p:878063650] in 13 Reasons...
