My younger son, Ned, has been a somewhat reluctant reader. I’m not sure why, because every time he actually sits down to read he has a pretty good time.

Does this sound famililar? Consider these observations she makes to claim her case of what has become a very unbalanced and frenetic culture: The average working couple in America spends 20 minutes a day together. “Family time” has become a goal, an achievement, rather than a natural consequence of being a family.
