I too have always loved reading, although I don't think I began to read as early as some of you. But one thing in my childhood that made a difference is the fact that we did not have a TV until I was older. So I did more reading for entertainment that the average kid. My parents finally bought a small black and white TV when I was about 12.....by then all the other families on the block had color TV's. My brother and I used to nag the stew out of our folks about getting a TV, but now I'm very grateful that we didn't have one. |
i didn't have a tv growing up either. you're right, i think it makes a big difference.
