[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Early on in our marriage, my spouse wanted to open a used bookshop in later life. This romantic thought propelled us to acquire and keep quite a few books in the decade preceding our DD birth. Fast forward to today, our DD is 10 and we no longer have that dream. In an attempt to de-clutter our home, we’ve reduced our home library from 2 thousand to about 500 for us and our DD has about 50 (books, not kids books). We have discovered that DD is a habit that is there only when we are on top of requesting her to read, otherwise the iPad takes over.[/quote] That's sad. My kids (9 and 11) don't have their own iPad. They both read for pleasure. They have maybe 150 books between the two of them, but they also go to the library at least once a week, so there are always new books around. [/quote]
