My child is 6. I have them do 10-20 min of guided reading daily, meaning I sit with them and help where needed. They read mostly on their own though. I started because school was basically not teaching anything and giving half assed explanations why not.
How much do you do? Wondering if I’m an asshole parent 😅
Do you read? I like reading, my children saw that and have periods when they do. One never does.
There’s no blanket answer or a guaranteed outcome based on making them read. It helps, in life but there’s reading for information and work etc, then there’s reading for pleasure. I am not sure it can be ‘installed’ as such.
