Not reading for pleasure

12nov24: Printed in The West


On Sunday, Kate Emery is worried that less children (and less adults) are reading for pleasure.


A few years ago, The Road by Cormac McCarthy was added to school curricula as a compulsory text.
There is no way that any decent human being could read The Road for pleasure.

And yet "we" forced our children to read it.

"We" clearly did not want children to enjoy the reading.

So "we" forced
  our children to read a book with no possibility of reading for pleasure.

For whatever reasons, "we" have done our best to remove the pleasure from reading.

And now "we" have succeeded.

Congratulations.
