[quote=Anonymous]What are his other options? I mean, if he's got unlimited screen time, he's unlikely to pick up a book, especially if reading doesn't come easy. And that brings up, of course, another question -- how are his decoding skills? When he reads with you, does he struggle with the text or substitute one word for another? Is he able to read "nonsense words" or real words in isolation or does he rely on context to pick things out? If this aspect is hard, he's going to have increased trouble understanding the narrative, because of the cognitive load of having to process the text.[/quote]
