[quote=Anonymous]OP -I think it might depend on the issues you are trying to fix, actually. I have one DS that really does not read for pleasure. I'm sad because I read for pleasure and I feel like he is missing out. Plus I think it would make him a better student/test taker. But, he's not. On the other hand, he does not play video games very often. We do not have a gaming system so it's just some silly games on his phone and not very often. He has non-screen time interests (music mainly) that occupy his time when I assume others are reading. I don't try to make him read as I feel like he is using his brain differently but still good. My other DS is a pretty good reader and reads daily for pleasure. He also loves video games and plays games on his phone all the time that I let him. So, the issue really isn't reading, at least for my kids. If you are trying to fix something, it is good to figure out what you are trying to fix.[/quote]
