A downvote, how understanable: truth hurts, doesn’t it Campion? You say that this comic doesn’t contain adult themes in order to promote pornography, but your past amd present actions prove otherwise.
Forest Hill discusses issues of childhood, childhood sexuality, abuse, and neglect. As such, this comic contains topics and elements not suitable for children, but at the same time, they are topics and elements they should be completely made aware of. This is placed at the beginning of each strip before you hit the comments. How can you say this doesnt have adult themes if he has a damn disclaimer on each page. Its not to promote pornography but to dictate a story. To garner the opinion of the character. Thats the point of the matter. If he was really trying… Read more »
I feel that if anyone isn’t able to cope with the depicted events in the course of the story, he or she has been given ample warning and opportunity to either accept what my transpire, or cease reading due to the subject matter. Don’t like what’s presented, don’t read it. No one is forcing anyone to continue.
If Campion truly meant this to be pornography, wouldn’t he actually show far more pictures of genitalia than this? Wouldn’t he actually show Benni’s and Talitha’s fathers doing the molesting as well? And wouldn’t this strip graphically depict Talitha fingering herself, instead of being offscreen? Sorry to disappoint you.
Well, Joe, the great part about the internet is that you don’t have to read everything on it and can leave if you like. The bad part about the internet is busybodies who think they can tell people what to write, draw, etc, just because they don’t like it instead of just moving on to wherever else they want to go.
Question. If you wrote Forest Hill. And you had a Kit who was sexually abused. and thought this behavior was acceptable. Tough she will learn that it isn’t in a future page. How would you write this page? you can’t write sexual abuse without being a little sexual. He could have gone porno with having a full page on how women masturbate in full detail. But he is just showing how this kit was affected by thinking this behavior is acceptable infront of strangers. Even tough it isn’t. I’d love to hear how you would write about this issue without… Read more »

Hoooooo boy. This actually reminds me of a story. See, I had a cousin that, at the age of six, found out about… Well, this. And she was probably the WORST at following instructions when it came to behavior. Tell her to use a fork and knife, she’d eat with her hands. Tell her to wear a jacket in the winter, she’d refuse to wear anything but shorts, tee shirts, and flip flops. Tell her to not cuss, and she’d go about slinging insults like a sailor. So you can only imagine when she found out about playing with herself.… Read more »
Why didn’t her parenty try it the opposite way then ? Telling her she MUST do it in front of everyone or she HAS TO wear only light clothes in winter etc. ? Maybe that way they could have tricked her early on… but yeah, the confusion might be problematic later on…
You wouldn’t want to take the risk of her making that the one thing she decided to obey. Just aside from the fact that it’d be irresponsible to encourage that behavior in a way that could be misconstrued as intentional, you also could get in a lot of trouble for it. It’s not worth it and in this case the harder route is by far the better one.
After many years of life, experiencing six out of seven continents, enjoying multiple cultures, and some rather odd occupations, I normally can comment on things, perhaps give a bit of insight to something.
This time? I ain’t got a darn thing I can add…

Why are you assuming that I personally downvoted your comment? I’m agnostic to your opinion, regardless of how you misinterpret what I said.
Well Rodriguez, it’s not a question of what you said, but what you created with your drawing tools.

Yeah, as if reverse psychology would work in such situations. Therapy isn’t easy, nor cheap, but it’s needed.

At times, Talitha’s character can be very disturbing; she’s so sweet and innocent that she has no idea what’s really doing when she does these things.
