I keep holding down that minus button!

[P452]

I keep holding down the minus button and watch her fidget in her seat, clearly distressed with the book in front of her.

"Hey… say… Can… you like read this?" she looks up to me and I glance at the book: "Err, yeah?"

"Poopie Pants! Sophia thinks she’s like getting dumb…", she says in a cute high-pitched voice.

Holy shit! Did I just turn her illiterate?
