[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posters saying their 4yos can't read either are missing the point. They haven't been trying. Posters saying that 4yos in rich-people play-based daycare can't read either are missing the point. Rich-people daycare centers notoriously weed out neurodivergent children. Those children probably could read if someone bothered to teach them. OP has been trying to teach her kid early literacy skills and it hasnt been clicking, and coupled with a speech delay there is clearly some kind of problem that needs to be evaluated by a specialist.[/quote] You are making a lot of assumptions. The OP doesn’t say she’s trying to teach early literacy skills and failing. And I disagree that a non ND four year old can learn to read if someone teaches them. My extremely intelligent DD couldn’t. I do agree that this child should see a developmental ped and be referred for full testing for their IEP so any needed supports are in place for kindergarten. [/quote]
