[quote=Anonymous]I was a precocious reader and my DC is entering K as a fluent reader. I'm an average adult for the most part, I just love reading. I haven't had negativity about DC's reading (which started at 4) but I had a lot of comments that DC potty trained at 2.5. I didn't force it, just made the toilet available. So many people had a comment, assumed I forced it, said there would be future issues, etc. Nope and my kid has had less than five accidents in three years. All this to say that some parents are competitive and some are petty. Comparison is the quickest way to self defeat. Live your OWN life with your kids, I'm sure they are awesome too.[/quote]
