I’ve heard that Ayn Rand was an unusually slow reader. Is this true and if so why?

I have two sons ages 19 and 17, and I am a recent Objectivist. I find it very challenging to guide them given their previous upbringing, where my own thinking was not consistently rational, and given today’s mainstream ideas. Whenever I try to guide them, they refuse to hear me out. What can I do?
