I Like to Read
Where Have All The Readers Gone?... I am currently 20 years old, and it shocks me to see how few people of my age read. They all prefer watching TV and movies. Then we wonder why young people today struggle to read. They don't get any practice. Schools are supposed to see this problem and do something about it. Not only do the youth of today struggle to read, but they lack creative thought. I used to help my English teacher go through the essays of my class, and it stunned me. My generation is mostly illiterate, yet they pass public school.
I am lucky, in the sense that my mother instilled a love for reading within me at a young age. But what of the rest? We need to get young people to start reading again. It can only benefit them.
