[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have three children all of whom revceived academic scholarships to top tier colleges. Two are now in Phi Beta Kappa. I was a SAHM and too damn busy to read to them, so horsehockey![/quote] I loathe posts like this. First, you cannot prove a negative - meaning you have no clue how much better off your children would have been had you read to them - like gotten into an IVY or true top university (the Ivys and top universities don't give academic scholarships). Perhaps they could have been inventors or innovators while in college. You have no idea how much better off they would have been since you didn't do it. Second, you are comparing your kids IQs to another child who may or may not have as high a natural IQ - why would you disregard the proof that reading helps. Third, why the hell is a grown woman without the need for a nanny posting on a nanny forum?! Get a life, Grandma! [/quote] Bull crap.[/quote]
