"Nowadays,you watch tv only! I never see you read books at all!."

"No. I did. I read books. In school. =)"

Well, that was my lil' bro talking to my mum. That cheeky fella.

Anyway, reading is a habit that many parents are trying to cultivate in their children. But the thing is, the parents are not cultivating the interest to read. Rather, they are forcing their children to read. =( Perhaps, because of the competitiveness in Singapore, parents are making their children read books that are too difficult for them. They feel that by doing so, their children would be able to learn more and be a step higher than the rest.

Bleargh. What they're doing is just intensifying their childrens' dislike towards reading.

Personally for me, reading should be an enjoyable and enriching experience. Learning comes naturally with reading. =)

Btw, I just finished reading "Keeping Faith" by Jodi Picoult. Awesome, awesome writing.
Up next, i'll be reading "My Sister's Keepers" by Jodi Picoult. I cant waitt!
