[quote=Anonymous]OP: get rid of the tv. After a couple weeks, your DD will pick up a book in the afternoons. Spend that time going to a library with her or a bookstore/coffee shop. It is a lot easier to veg in front of a tv, but if there is no tv, the chances of her reading are huge. She may become a bookworm after all. :) Just a suggestion. It worked for us. No tv in the house at all until they were in high school. By then they had all become bookworms. Once we had tv, only one took a real interest in it, but she still read a book a week in high school on her own. All had high verbal SAT scores. There is a connection. [/quote]
