Don't be too sad, we are still doing unbelievably well compared to some countries when you think on a whole world scale....
There do actually seem to be a lot of adult literacy programs here, so they aren't just shrugging their shoulders at least.
Good on ya for you being a great influence on your whole family!
I guess even people who can read don't necessarily indulge in it too often, (even if I don't understand how they can be like that!!!) but it sounds like your kids must love reading.
