8th grade for me, making most students about 13/14.

My class read LotF at age 13/14. This was in the UK though, we're not nearly as sensitive to such things :)

Grade 11 - most students are 16 or 17 by the time they are exposed to Lord of the Flies.

Am I the only one who, though exposed to violent media as a young child, didn't turn into a deranged psychopath?

No offense, but how many deranged psychopaths actually agree that they are?

I don't know. What does the relevant medical literature say?
