The “ability to read” isn’t the average 6th grade skill we see in adults today. The point about adults being able to read presupposes a number of items.

Literacy is again more than that.

Today we live in a world where Ivy League matriculants haven’t read or heard of, The Iliad.

Live in a backwater and expect that your children are forever hindered.

It’s like hurricane preps on the coast. Your house survived. But not your neighbors. Not any of them. No insurance, either.

Bye-bye to whatever you’ve “invested” in that house.
