It is very true unfortunately that kids nowadays have no time for reading school books. Even the story books that our parents used to buy for us when we were younger so that we could improve on our English language, spellings and grammar, things that made us better are things that are not being done by parents nowadays. If I look back in the days parents had a day in everything that a child was doing and it was their word against the kids. No one had a right as such to decline what the parent said you just had to do it for your own goodness sake. So would I be wrong to say that parents nowadays are slacking behind when it comes to taking care of their kids? I don’t think so .like you have said kids from the age of 5 spend so much time online, who teaches those kids how to operate those gadgets and how do they get hold of them is it not the parents in the pretends that they want their kids to be well informed and not slack back? If anything the best thing a parent would do for a child is to get them various books and teach them what the real world is all about.and not lie to them that the world is an easy place to be. It’s only the parents that can decide what a child should and should not have not the other way round that is my opinion.

yes, if parents had initiated the first step, then children will follow suit later.
Back then, my parents couldn’t afford to buy story books for me.
We had borrowed from libraries and got free old encyclopedias from my rich cousins.We never had computers at home since we cannot afford one.
So that is how I got hooked to reading

The question now is how to bring back the interest in children to read stories. It will never be a question if there are good stories because we have lots of books and stories from the past up to now.
Maybe the parents should invest time to read some stories to their children. This one will develop their interest to read more stories. When I was a kid I love to read stories and now I am a writer.
-
true, parents should spend more time on reading books, newspapers to kids when they are young.
because once they becomes adult, they are not keen in reading anymore

It is a fact that children are not interested in reading due to computer or YVs or movies all dancing on the screen before their eyes that is why reading trends in children are losing interest but I think it is a very serious matter we all must think abut this serious and dangerous matter what to do now?
f we want our young people to read, it won’t happen automatically. There are too many other fun things to do. But it’s not rocket science. If we care about reading, and if we put good books in front of students, and if we foster a love of reading, then young people will read.
Your life evolves into different sets of responsibilities, interests and aspirations that are reflected by how you utilize time. In other words, one day you were a readaholic and then next you discover internet video surfing which replaced your reading times. Surfing time became more important to you.
The best part of reading is that not only do you gain knowledge but the process of reading books helps unlocks different parts of your brain that enhances your ability to acquire different perceptions and interpretation about life that leads to deeper insight.
Let us think why children are losing interest in reading?

No producers that telecast their programmes on tv would be happy with me as I hardly do justice to their efforts. I have much too much to spare time to spend it in front of the tv. I truly envy you.
Oh I’m not really in front of a TV. I’m on my laptop. ( My husband is a TV hogger. 🙂 But he’s a nice TV hogger. 🙂 ) The good thing about is that I can work between two browsers. One browser has my show that I’m watching. The other has my work that I’m doing. The sites I’m using have advertisements. When they break for the ads I can switch over and do some work. I also switch in between because it breaks up the boredom of my daily work routine.
Most of the time though, I try to wait until after my work day is done before I treat myself to the luxury of binge watching. On a holiday (because my family would get upset if I worked!) or on a self-imposed “day off” (where I just have to take a break from my labors), I might just lie around the house watching a show. It’s my way of treating myself for being a good worker. I earned it! 🙂
If I can remember back in th3 days when we only got to watch tv in the evenings for like two hours then we are told to go to bed by our parents because the following day was a school day. The only time we could watch tv from the afternoon was on the weeknds because there was no school then. When I finsished school I was free to watch tv until midnight so I would watch all the movie that came on and the could only run for a maximum of two hours that was the longest becaus the tv stations used to close at twelve midnight, there was no 24 hour tv station those days. When th3 digital are came by we are now on full swing but the urge of watching tv is not there anymore. There is too much to be done where will the time to watch tv come from when you come home in the evening you ar3 so tired all you want to do is low on your bed an just enjoy the silence after a long days work.so in short I am not a tv binge at all in fact my eyes tire so fast so I can hardly keep up.
I remember back in the day when if you missed a show, you had to wait until they started showing the reruns. Now they have TV shows on Netflix and you can watch not just one show but the entire series, at your own convenience. I was a TV baby, grew up watching TV. Don’t know what life would have been like without the television. (I say that because my husband grew up without a television. He can tell what it was like. He was happy if he had money to go to the movie theater.) I was infected with the “TV bug” from a child and never got rid of it! Binge watching was made for people like me. 🙂
Watching my favorite TV series? No. But while writing some articles or narrative stories or even news item, I don’t want to be disturb. But its hard to be not disturb especially when you have five hyper active children in your and always playing and shouting, no more binging.
I had 11 children. They are all grown now. Binge watching was something I could not do while raising them. But now they are on their own, I can enjoy treating myself to this luxury. I can’t travel or go out much any more. Between finding music on YouTube and binge watching TV shows that are streamed online, I am happy happy happy!
