    I thought you were better than that Jimbo. You disappointed me.

    This has nothing to do with age. First, ‘together time’ between parents and kids, whether with conversations, games or reading out loud, results in a mentally healthier kid who does better at school and later at jobs and at parenting kids himself. Secondly, a kid whose parents read to him also does better in school than a kid whose parents park him in front of a TV.-And that was the point of this ‘toon. Rose kept telling Jimbo that, as a family, they spent more time talking together, playing games and reading than watching TV. Which is why it was wistfully funny that they walked out of Pasquale’s room talking about whether they would accept the cable offer, and forgot all about reading to Pasquale…

    ‘Bed-time-story’ time is quality Mom and Son time for Pasquale. He should demand that they either let him watch tv with them or one of them read him the story.

    Quality time spent between parent and child is never wasted. And reading time… Oh how I miss reading time!

    yeah. you’re never too old to be read to. one of the best things you can do in a relationship with a lover is sit and read aloud from a favorite book.
