They usually don't know good writing from bad in the first place. Also, they don't want to hurt your feelings, so they're tempted to say nice things even if they don't think the writing is good. Or if they are jealous of you, they may say bad things even if they think the writing is good.

But I think there is something more important than just literacy - an independent thinking and ability to reflect on surrounding us real world in a special, unique way.
