[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t force reading, instead limit screen time and hope they pick up a book. If you don’t harp on them, they are more likely to [/quote] They won’t if they don’t like to read. If they don’t like to read one thing that might work is letting them pick their own books. My son who was always ahead a few grades in reading didn’t like to read. He did read Calvin and Hobbs, Dilbert, books by comedians, that sort of thing starting in 3rd grade. He only read chapter books that were required. My daughter who was behind in reading comprehension had a terrible time. We eventually had to get books on CD and listened in the car when we drove to ballet 6 nights a week. [/quote]
