Hi guys! This mod was originally made as a feature for the next RM update but I figured it's also a nice little addition for those who don't play with it but would still like literacy in their game.

This mod automatically adds illiteracy to your sim, and they will have to learn to read to regain the ability to do some of the in-game interactions that require the reading skill.
The skill is available for children-elders.

Interactions like reading books, doing anything on a computer that requires reading, reading notices, ect will be greyed out from the pie menu until your sim reaches level 5 of the new Literacy skill.

To work on this skill, sims can do a few things:

'Practice Reading' (Adults) You can do this by self-clicking on your illiterate sim and choosing the practice reading interaction.
Other sims with level 5 of the skill will be able to mentor them by clicking on them whilst the sim is performing the interaction.
'Practice Reading' (Children) You can buy 'Literacy Book' from any bookcase just like you can purchase homework.
Kids are able to practice reading with this book and other sims with level 4 of the literacy skill can mentor them.
Children and teens can also choose 'Practice Reading' whilst away at school by clicking on their away icon (where you can choose to slack off or work hard, ect.)
Not available with the anti-conflict version.

Sims will gain a reward trait once they learn to read and can then teach other sims! :)
