[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love learn to read in 100 early steps. I also believe that it is a parents responsibility to teach kids to read. Sure the schools should do it, but they aren’t doing it well. [b]Read to your kids!!!! Have them read with you. Every single day[/b] [/quote] I am the op. No disagreement on the part in bold; mine are ages 16 and 17 and I STILL occasionally read to them before bed; both are performing phenomenally in academics. At this stage, reading to them is probably more of a parental bonding exercise than of any academic benefit. Nevertheless, as another has previously stated: our schools must also be capable of teaching basic literacy to all; including children who don’t have a parent to read to them. Our public education system has done so in the past. Why has it failed throughout 2025 and into 2026? [/quote] 2012[/quote]
