Reading back what I wrote, yes, we never took this as a warning not to let them learn at all! I think the intention was more that there is less incentive to actively push or pressure kids in to reading before school, and that actively trying to teach them one methodology might even conflict with the method they end up being taught in school. That parents try to "get their kids ready for school" by getting them to read before starting, and that doing so is unnecessary. That is how we took it.
- siftrics 3y agoHow could anyone take the advice "don't teach your kids" seriously? Are you insane? It makes no sense on any level. How does NOT teaching your kid to read help them? It's as if people don't have brains anymore.
