<< Singapore researchers say children who read more than two books a week, and whose parents have myopia -- nearsightedness -- are 10 times more likely to have the disorder than non-readers whose parents have good vision. >>



This sounds more like an argument that poor eyesight is hereditary. How they twisted that to mean your kids shouldn't read is beyond me.

I'm sure there are more than a handful (haha) of AT members who are going to go blind for activities other than reading.

Well, I read more than two books a week from the time I was 4. I had the worst myopia ever BUT just had it fixed last week! Reading and enhancing knowledge vs wearing glasses...with the potential of having it fixed....
