[quote=Anonymous]Agree with 11:51. My kids sometimes read for pleasure, but they read a lot more if I pay them, and I figure while they are young its better to get the practice in so that they will be more fluent readers when it matter more for school. I do make them write up something nominal about each book before I will pay them (What did you like best about this book? Would you recommend it to a friend/why or why not?) Intrinsic motivation is great and all, but if they don't have it for reading, I'm willing to pay for now to get them to do more. [/quote]
