It's not OK to be curious if people find out you are being so. But being curious (nosy they call it) helped us get by when we were little. By being noticing, by poking around, listening, reading stuff we weren't supposed to, that showed us whent hings were dangerous and we had to ack to keep people happy or else they would go. It's a habit I can't break now. So if someone says don't read something I have to read it. So I know what they problem might be. It was a bad thing to do.
