    My parents taught me to read. In elementary school my teachers told me I wasn’t allowed to ask questions.

      May I ask, Did all your teachers do this, or one in specific? Did your teachers refuse to teach you to read and the burden of literacy was solely on your parents?

        In elementary school it was roughly half or more of them. There were a couple good(from my perspective obviously) teachers at that school, but it might have been below average.

        I imagine they would have, but most people in my classes learned from their parents.
