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 😅
Have you ever procrastinate your homework to the evening? Now you are tired and cannot focus anymore. For sure reading will somehow become fun. Chore is a chore. If you take my favorite activity and force me to do it every day for half an hour - I will start to hate it.
