Benefits of Reading

 Reading can keep your mind active and engaged well into old age.  Reading a good story can help you forget some of the problems in your own life. Why Should you read?

 Reading also sets a good example for younger generations. Why Should you read?

The answer to that is -- everyone. Developing good reading skills does not only mean that you can read a novel or a nonfiction book or a magazine or newspaper, it also means being able to read -- and understand-- a credit card contract or an insurance policy. Or the directions for putting together that new shelving unit you just bought. Or the instructions for how to install a new printer to use with your computer. Or the qualifications you need to apply for a job or to take out a loan to buy a house. Or that article you found on the Internet advising consumers about the best, most economical car to buy. But why is reading so important? In this day and age, with television to give us news, and movies and videos to keep us entertained, who needs to read?

Possessing good reading skills also means you can read and understand a product label. Or the directions for taking medication. Or the warnings printed on a bottle of household cleaner. In addition, developing good reading skills means that you can think for yourself. That you can read about the advantages and disadvantages of anything from breast feeding to homeschooling to taking a vacation to Ireland. And then you make up your own mind about what's best for you and your family.
