Dang ! So I think 'Hmmm, I just need to check a detail or two', so I track down the book... that was 4 hours ago. I hate it when that happens :)!
There are so many ways they could gruesomely mangle such a delicate story it's scary. This could make Lynch's Dune look like a sensitive interpretation.
Perhaps we should put our faith in child abuse. We need a 'Friends of Ender' organisation to suggest to Hollywood ( well, anyone who'll listen... ) that Ender's Game glorifies abusive relationships with children, seeks to justify the use of children as soldiers ( I'm sure there's a UN Treaty or something about that ), encourages children who use the net to deceive others about their age, and is actually little more than a twisted shadow of Lord of the Flies.
Now done as dark Manga, that might be a different picture...
