[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3 year is trilingual and says these things in 3 languages. IS HE A GENIUS?????[/quote]

Stop.  No need for the snark.  It is not at all crazy to wonder what OP is wondering.[/quote]

This is OP - thanks for that. I mean why would I be bragging if I don't know any of you people - what good would that do. I was just curious where this falls in the realm of normal - the only other 2 year olds I can compare to are the ones in her daycare class, which are the ones her teachers are comparing her too. I certainly don't think she is a genius or a prodigy but I suspect she is quite bright.[/quote]

I'm sure she is quite bright and it's impressive how she can express her feelings in words. Hell, I'm 37 and I still have trouble doing that. [/quote]

Pp here. Maybe I'm not in a place to offer advice, but my son sounds similar to your daughter. He could speak in sentences at 18 months and could read a little before 3. And it's cool and I appreciate that he was easier to communicate with than your average toddler (which I'm learning with my daughter now). Is your daughter or my son a genius? Probably not, but they're plenty bright and that's great. And they will continue to be challenging in lots of other ways. [/quote]

Your two year old could read, and you don't find that impressive?  Who are you?  Matilda's mom?[/quote]

I know, the opposite brag is weird too.  My son could read before 3, and at 3.5 can read books marked for grade 1 and 2, and I (secretly) think it's amazing.  It's weird to no biggie that.[/quote]
