GB News: British kids losing love of reading as Gen Z parents say it is 'not fun'
Reading enjoyment among children in the UK has dropped to its lowest level in 20 years, with significant declines noted among primary-aged children. A recent survey indicates only one in three children aged 8 to 18 enjoy reading, and the number reading daily has halved since 2005.
The decline is attributed to changing parental attitudes, particularly among Gen Z parents who view reading as a chore rather than a pleasurable activity. This shift, combined with a growing reliance on digital entertainment, is contributing to a worrying trend where children associate reading more with schoolwork than enjoyment.
