Let’s put it this way; the only time we get called about disciplinary issues at school are when The Spawn are caught “reading at inappropriate times”. They are readers. Make that READERS. They read everything.
As littles they would fight over who got to read the back of the cereal box first.
Their personal book library is overflowing the two, double stacked, five high bookcases and on to their bedroom floor.
Having a Librarian for an Evil Aunt means each one gets 12-14 books at Christmas, Easter and Birthday. They are steadily working their way through the school library as well. Don’t get me started on online comics and fan fiction. There is just too much.
Regarding this forum, The Spawn have been lurking over our shoulders for years. Regular posters have become topics of conversation and speculation over dinner. Basically we imposed the 16 year old rule more for YOUR benefit than theirs.
Live in fear. The countdown clock is running.
