I think the correct approach to teaching someone to read involves more than one approach. My daughter JUST learned phonics, so didn't learn to recognize words when she saw them, she had to use each syllable to figure out a word. My son learned some phonics, some whole language. He wasn't a great reader at first, either.
I think the biggest difference in why my son now reads so well is the fact that he WANTS to. My daughter has too many other interests in her life to read too much, though she LOVVVVEEESSSSSS the Twilight series. (forgive her, but at least she reads and rereads them)
I was just curious on whether people "saw" the story or not. I didn't mean to cause a fight. I now know that both ways are normal. There are no crutches or wrong ways to read, unless you aren't reading at all.
