Am I harmed in any way? No. I asked why one of the kids in my second grade class told me I would burn in hell because I didn't believe Jesus. She told me because some people aren't as open to diversity. I asked why my godfathers lived together, my mom said because they're married (back in the day when you could get married in California). Am I corrupt? No. It's not like she made me watch porn or anything, she just told me the truth, because everyone has the right to know the truth.
The only thing my mom protected me from was horror and gore. And quite frankly, I'm happy. I can just imagine the nightmares I would have :/.
