I would do neither. Both fiction and non-fiction are important to a balanced education.

The caveats are to make sure the person you are mentoring understands that while fiction is made-up, it often offers hypotheitcals uselfull in making real world judgments, and while non-fiction is not made up, no writer is objective and will slant research/statistics/examples to fit into a preconceived conclusion.

Yeah, I think most people here agree on that, so that is why I asked which one would be the 'worst' to take away.

If I have to choose, the fiction is the worst to take away simply because of the implication that everything else is true.
