[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a precocious reader and still love to read. I did not grow up in the DC area and have no idea if people made snide comments, although I doubt it. I'd ignore them and cultivate the reading more (you seem preoccupied with having people not notice). I'm more concerned about the ped. [b]The ped didn't believe you? [/b]Does your ped disabuse you of other things you say about your child? Certainly it's not the norm, but I don't think reading at 3 is SO RARE that a ped should doubt you, but maybe I'm mistaken and I really was a special snowflake. ;-)[/quote] PP: Our ped was a saint. When he saw how proud we were of our baby he gently kidded us -- he did not want us to be friendless![/quote]
