Yes! 👏🏻

This is my kid focusing on reading.

I could have asked him to sit down and sit still.
And he maybe could have done it.
And his focus would have suffered a whole lot because he would need to make a conscious effort to keep his body still.

And for what reason? To please me? To meet some neuronormative expectation of what 'good reading' looks like?

Nah.

I want him building his literacy skills. He adores reading and I hope he always does.
I'm going to let him read however he pleases.

*Edited to add: he's taking the weight through his arms. He was not about to flip the chair backwards. He spends all day climbing and building his balance, core, and gross motor skills. It's his strength and deep joy. Sometimes he needs an adult to intervene with a safety message when he's doing stuff. This was not one of those times.
