You are so right... Nowadays people has moved to digital media for information and all. They dont like to read about what they are looking for instead they go to YouTube or such other media to get the information. That is what impacting children too. They watching their parents stick to Mobile phones ,laptops, not reading any paper book at all, and I have seen some parents they play some videos on youtube and give it to their kids and they don't know that they inculcating this habit.
Reading is very important for brain as when we read our brain has to work to understand the whole scenario but when we waste time in watching TV or videos on YouTube all the time, It has very deteriorating effect on the brain and it is not only for the children but adults too. For brain development, reading is great. All the successful people have this habit in common.
Thanks for reminding me too. I will start reading and I have been thinking about it but now I will start.
