My two future sons have indicated to me recently that they want me to NOT read them nursery rhymes when they are young.
They have stated that nursery rhymes can damage a child's mind.
I am OK with that.
When I was younger 40+ years ago, I felt the same way.
I feel that it is in the past 20-30 years that western civilization has realized this truth too, and has moved onto better kids literature.

The article above says that reading Harry Potter to yer kids may be a safer option.
