AHA. The crucial piece of information I was missing there! I do feel that's rather bad if it's not playful. Kids get a lot of messages adults don't mean to send, so I was worried. I have a few other sad memories of the "She reads too much stop her" variety. But I stand corrected on your own family's attitude!

My family has a few multiple copies of books just so we could all read them at the same time without a battle.
