Hi! I made that posting on behalf of Betsy, who had some difficulty with a message she had sent not getting through. She may have a better idea than I do. My son (aged 13) read it in 5th grade, and says that a kid steals from his parents, in general there's a lot of stealing, and kids might get threatened. He didn't seem to think there'd be any particular problem with using it in middle school.
