Most children, and adolescents too, are unable to properly get the meaning of a simple text... at least in my country, and it has been an issue for teachers to get them involved in the process of opening a book...they seem to believe their only way to keep alive is having a cel in their hands.
Sad, a real pity the way they let pass the chance of getting to know what the world has, what life is about, how they can improve themselves and obtain the tools to be able to keep body and soul together once they have to live by themselves...
Big sigh...
