Why have the youth stopped reading?

The decline in reading among youth can be attributed to the rise of digital entertainment, such as social media, Video Games, and streaming services, which often provide more immediate gratification than traditional reading. Additionally, the fast-paced nature of modern life and increased academic pressures may leave young people with less leisure time to engage with books. Furthermore, the prevalence of shorter content formats may have shifted attention spans, making long-form reading seem less appealing.
