Excuse you he's been building a podracer and who do you THINK did all of Watto's repair work?

In truth Anakin could sit still. Sit still, be quiet, and do what he was told - and for far longer than a boy of his age should be able to do. But generally it was fixing or repairing something. Not working at a screen. And he did want to learn to read and write. But it didn't sound enjoyable. "Yes Sir." Anakin's voice couldn't be less enthused, but there's no fight in it either. "When do I start?"
