[quote=Anonymous]Americans are nuts about starting early for everything! It's never how you start. I think that age 5 is still young. I get academically you have to get up to par grade wise to keep up at any school but not reading well in K is truly NOT a big deal. My 2 kids in MD read great in K. One is fine but the other was t diagnosed with dyslexia until 5th grade! So just because he read well in K did not mean all will be well thereafter. My point is you gotta look at where a kid is at 6/7 to really figure out what's what and then there is still plenty of time to catch up. My dyslexia kid took years with hard work but is finally doing great. In Scandinavia they don't even worry about this stuff till after age 7.[/quote]
