[quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP who said my kid happened to pick it up. Yes, he did teach himself to read. It's not uncommon. I did it too, according to my mother. We always read to him a lot and at some point he started reading signs while we were driving, labels on things at the grocery store, etc., and asking about them. I realized the extent of his reading ability when we were at the pediatrician's office waiting for the doctor and he read aloud a sign on her wall and asked me what it meant. I was actually shocked. Now, I'm not saying he could comprehend everything or write a book report at that point, but he was reading. [/quote]
