For a son who is having difficulty learning how to read

1. You’re beginning to catch on.
2. Slowly but surely.
3. Stay focused, keep your eye on the ball, and don’t let your mind wander.
4. All things take time and effort, that’s to be expected.
5. With a bit of work and luck, it will all work out fine in the end.
6. You’ll look back on this and smile that you ever doubted your own ability to succeed.
7. I know what it’s like because I went though a similar situation when I was your age.
8. It’s really coming along.
9. You’re really getting the hang of it.
