[quote=Anonymous]parent of twins. One was reading at a first grade level when they were 3. The other didn't read until they were 6. There's nothing you can do about it, they read when they suddenly figure it out. I will also say that I have heard reading isn't actually about language skill, it's a decoding thing in the brain. And my experience bears this out. My late reader has a much better gift for turns of phrase, can pick up other languages much more quickly and fluently. So really the reading age just doesn't matter.
