[quote=Anonymous]NP here. I read at 3. My mom has video of me at 2 crying that I didn't know how to read. I was very upset about it and felt very strongly that I should know. We didn't have many books in the house and my into to words was Sesame Street. That's when it clicked and I got frustrated feeling that I was somehow behind. According to my mom, I would read the free newspaper (since that's pretty much all the reading material we had). My mom did not push reading (or read much to me) but I learned how at an early age. Sure, it means nothing much and other kids caught up later. But it's worth noting how driven I was to read. I believe this happens to kids at different ages. There were plenty of other things that I was far behind in and caught up to other kids (primarily sports). But this is all to say... kids will lead in this if you let them.[/quote]
