Have you ever gotten in trouble for reading? For example, have you ever gotten into trouble at school/work because you were reading instead of doing your work? How much trouble did you get into?
 
RE: Get into trouble for reading...?

So interesting this oxymoron. Because most people in school get in trouble for "not" reading rather then actually reading. I can't recall a time where I did get in trouble for reading. The closest I can come in when I told my 5th grade teacher a good magazine to read was playboy and then got locked in a janitors closest as punishment.

I actually got in trouble for doing homework when I was supposed to be reading. I wasn't trying to avoid reading; I saw several other students doing homework and assumed it was an option. Whoops!

Never got in trouble for reading, as I tend to read through text books most of the way through, to avoid having to keep up with homework. Most of the "getting into trouble", usually revolves around forgetting to do homework when I was in school.

I got into a trouble for reading pornography when I was in school

On many occasions I have got into trouble for reading my favorite story books during my school days. I was an avid reader of fiction novels and comic books. As and when I get an opportunity, I used to read story books instead of doing my school studies and it did affect my scores in academics. I was reprimanded many times for this by my parents and teachers. I corrected myself and rescheduled my leisure reading hours so as to not affect my studies.

As a little kid, once I got caught by my mom for reading a comic by hiding it inside my textbook. 
 
If you don't read what you are supposed to read and you read "other books" you can get into trouble especially if you are in school. I know this happens to a lot of people.
