Adam is a qualified solicitor and Tracy and Peter both ran successful businesses, so they can't be exactly stupid but they criticised Daniel. And they made it seem like reading a book for it's own sake was a crime.
But they did the same thing when Ken was first in the show as a young man. His brother wanted to be a footballer while Ken wanted to go to University and his family didn't understand him. -

They always do this in Corrie. The minute anybody displays a decent vocabulary or shows the slightest bit of ambition, it's singled out to be mocked It annoys me. Just because you're working class and don't live in a posh area doesn't mean you shouldn't have aspirations!
