Do your parents read?

[Anonymous No.14547718]

Kat's dad is apparently a big reader. She seems to love him a lot. How is it to have a dad who reads? How is it to have a dad?

Does having reader parents facilitate the development of a reading habit? In that case can I blame the terrible upbringing of most people in my generation for the fact no one reads?

Your family definitely influences your reading habits. My mom's rule was that for every hour I read I was allowed a half hour of screen time. Needless to say, I gained a lifelong appreciation for reading.

My father likes to pretend he's well read. The only thing he reads are tabloid newspapers. That said, if he's going out somewhere, he'll go out of his way to buy broadsheet newspapers which I assume he thinks gives off the impression of intelligence and class.

It's actually quite pathetic.

My dad does the same. He hasn’t read a book, other than 2-3 young adult books my mom gives him a year, in a long time, but constantly feels the need to jump on people when they mispronounce a word or he feels a different word would have suited better. The ironic thing is I have to dumb down my vocabulary with him to not cause a fight. He also dislikes every classic because they’re racist and boring. He called 1984 anti-Semitic, even though he never read it. Is your dad Jewish? Mine is and every stereotype rings true.

This is bait, right? You guys aren't seriously retarded enough to think that this (probably coalburning) whore is a virgin, RIGHT?

Okay repeat after me: ALL WOMEN ARE WHORES, EVEN THE QUIET, NERDY ONE IN THE BACK OF CLASS

Say this mantra out loud. Then say it twenty more times, then fifty more times. ALL women are whores who will fuck and suck any man who they deem hot enough to pin them down and fuck their pussies. I don't care if the girl is young, old, extroverted, introverted, atheist, christian, smart, dumb, slutty, innocent, cute, ugly, thin, fat, traditional, progressive, on the inside ALL women are WHORES, CUMSLUTS, and PROSTITUTES.

And while all women are whores, do you know who the biggest whores are? E THOTS who can't just be irl sluts but have to go online and beg for attention and money from sniveling little beta male FAGGOTS like the people on this board. Quit fucking licking the feet of these vapid cunts. I'd rather have a board filled with a billion tripfags, Guenon posters, and sneed posters than deal with a another stupid fucking E THOT THREAD.

My father reads comics and my mother mostly women's books (not classics but not YA). I could say that she inspired me a lot to read but I don't recall anything more than her reading Harry Potter that could've interested me to read. She tried to make me quit the YA genre by introducing me to Tolkien but I never wanted to read the books. Towards the age of 13 I got my first PC and I played Vidya everyday until the age of 18. At eighteen I recognized that I wasn't as smart as I thought I was so I tried to look back upon what I did that made me "smart" and I was disappointed to realize that I used to read at all times. So I found /lit/ and I didn't start with the Greeks but I started with the highschool essentials. I am happy I did that and I am sorry for the blog post.

No, neither of them, but they were very good people and the best parents that they could be and encouraged my interest, buying me used books whenever they could
I'm not sure why or how I picked up reading, perhaps because I was basically an only child and lived a solitary existence

I've always liked and been good at reading, writing, history, though neither of my parents were college graduates

I just read/write for fun though, I study science and math. It goes without saying that they know even less about those subjects, but at least they encouraged me to learn

With younger parents (40 and under) I see today, they couldn't care less and just give their young children pieces of technology to pacify them (tablets, phones, vidya), which is clearly ruining their cognitive abilities and attention spans. I'm not sure if they just don't care or aren't aware themselves. A lot of these are immigrants (legal or otherwise...usually the latter), quite young themselves, and have infinitely more children than educated folk, because they can't control themselves and because they probably see children as a meal ticket and are incentivized to breed as they get money from the government. While they can't provide for their children financially (the taxpayer does), they can't stimulate them intellectually either and have no thought about who they are bringing into this world - a very selfish act. It's just creating more dummies. I'm not especially smart or anything, I'm a brainlet honestly, but as a millennial I can see that zoomers are absolutely fucked, as is society as a whole. It's incredibly depressing. Kaczynski was right about everything

Anyways, she got my dad into reading and he read all 6 volumes of My Struggle by Knausgaard, and now I buy him books for Christmas and his birthday. He works as a social economist so one year I bought Piketty's Capital and he read it from cover to cover. I was so impressed. One year I bought him Hamsun's The Growth of the Soil, and this year (2019) I got him Anabasis for his birthday and the first vol. of In Search of Lost Time. He only reads what I buy him, but he seems to enjoy it and it has greatly improved our relationship. It has also made it way easier for me to buy him presents.

Yes, both read a lot, my father reads mostly pulpy genre fiction especially detective novels, though he likes some literary fiction, I got him into reading Dumas when I was a teenager, he likes to read the same things as me sometimes to discuss it. My mother is an avid reader, mostly of literary fiction but also of some biographies and sappier pop stuff in recent years.
>How is it to have a dad who reads?
Pretty good as even if most of what he reads is genre fiction it makes him a more interesting person to talk to than someone who just watches tv due to improved vocabulary and processing.
>How is it to have a dad?
Nice to be supported by someone, though he probably could’ve been a better role model he’s better than none, I also discuss music and the Jews with him.
>Does having reader parents facilitate the development of a reading habit?
Yes because they will encourage you more to read than parents who do not read themselves, plus growing up in a house with hundreds of books gives good access for someone starting to read more, I wouldn’t read so much if my mother didn’t encourage it so much, I only wish that they had encouraged me to read philosophy when I was younger but they don’t read much of that themselves. I will strongly encourage my own children to read.

My dad doesn't read at all. My mom will read some absolute meme-tier stuff. Tons of self-help books. Even one of those books with "f*ck" in the title. I remember thinking she was super-literate when I was younger because she could read a Harry Potter book in a day. I've never even seen the Harry Potter movies, so I couldn't tell you if that's actually impressive or not; but it's still hundreds of pages.

My mom is the reason I got into reading. She rarely gave me any positive attention. But I noticed that she liked the idea of me being well-read, so I took up reading just for the goal of getting mom to like me. It didn't work out too well. There was no positive stimuli when I actually finished a book, and the reward was exclusively limited to when we were checking out at the bookstore. She made a remark about me buying books without reading them, and to this day I have a complex about buying books because I'm afraid I won't read them quickly. As I got older, I retained that work ethic mindset towards reading; but I'm aware of how important books are for knowledge, so I still read every day.

To be honest, my family are complete morons, white trash. It's definitely affected my personality. Sometimes I come across as extremely egotistic because of how much I insult the intelligence of the hoi polloi, but that's not really the case. I'm very aware that there are major ideas in science, philosophy, and mathematics which I am totally unaware of. And I basically worship people if they display even the slightest bit of intelligence or competence. The idea of having someone to talk to or rely on, never mind that person being a parent who loves you unconditionally, is completely foreign to me.
