I feel if you don't have any handicaps however, it's a bit lazy. Like being read to as a child. I personally don't retain that much information aurally so I have trouble relating to those who apparently can.
That's a very good point and one I had not considered. I will have to give it some thought.
Really, you didn't learn how to read until you graduated primary school? I learned how to read before I entered it. If you are referring to "decoding" as reading, I agree, it's not high effort at all. That's why I referred to listening to words as low effort. See the logic?
I'm sorry you were apparently offended by my honestly but that is your right an your choice. It wasn't directed at you personally.

No, I am not seeing your logic.
And although I am not the poster that commented about primary school, I would guess she was referring to your snide comment about listening to books is lazy. (Better known as your attitude and maybe you will outgrow it. )
Unless you want to be called out on it don't ever call someone else's behavior lazy.
Just a little tip there.
Actually for me it would take way more effort to listen than to look at a book.
