“Lack of real books in the home.”

Yep. Who knew that letting social media raise your kid wasn’t a great idea??? Lordy.

It is more then that.

Most people's first contact with the printed word is through pulling books off the shelf and looking at them.

You can not do that with an e-book. If your home does not have real books in it, a lot of real books, your kids will not become readers. If you do not read, and read a large variety of books, you are reducing your ability to think.

People think e-books are the same thing. They are not. I can pick out the kids in my Sunday School class who have real books in the home and those who don't. And frankly the blue light is not good for adults or children.

But, what do I know.
