[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Waited until 3rd birthday for both ds and dd. Got it right away.[/quote]

Bike riding at 7! Reading at 8! Swimming at 9! It will all be a breeze![/quote]

Um yeah, pretty much.  Not those specific ages, but I potty trained my child the same way I did other things.  I gave him lots of opportunities to see how other people did something,and waited until he showed interest and signs that he was ready.  With him in the lead he picked things up super fast.

Somethings came very early -- he swam at 2.  Some things were right on schedule -- potty training in 24 hours right around his 3rd birthday, bike riding in about 20 minutes at age 6, and some things were on the late side -- he learned his letters in a week while we were on a family vacation the summer before Kindergarten.  Whatever.  He's headed off to college, and I can assure you that he swims, and pees, and rides a bike, and reads as skillfully as kids who parents pushed them to do these things early.  [/quote]
