Safiya is 7. She likes to read. So when it’s bedtime and she pleads to let me read a bit, I do what any loving father would do: I ask her to read to her brothers (so I don’t have to).
So she reads to her younger brothers as I catch up on TV shows. Then they all go to bed.
And she thanks me for letting her read. Kids ….

turn off that tv and read to your kids. they grow up so fast that a month later they will be going to college and will not want you around anymore. enjoy it while you can. :)
Hey hey :). I should've clarified that this is post bed-time reading, which is where the "pleading to read" part comes in.
