You know Penni I spent years reading to my sons before bed, but in the last few years the kids have had the nightly reading programs so we switched over to making them read. They have the cards that must be signed each night to say that they had indeed read. Well not all kids like reading and not all kids can do it with ease. Some nights we were just as likely to get a book thrown at us as having it read to us. So gradually we have stopped reading at bedtime. On reading your post I realize that perhaps we should not have had him read to us. I think that we should just read to him to maintain his interest in books. I think that the rest will come eventually. He is 10 now and should read better than he does, but I feel we lost this " special" time of the day in an effort to improve his reading skills. Thank you for the inspiration janet
