[quote=Anonymous]It actually is fairly uncommon for a kid to read at three and one-half. We know two kids (not mine:) who could do it- one turned out to be exceptionally gifted and one is very bright but not gifted. Basically, it's not something to be dismissed as "just early reading" but not an absolute sign of intellectual genius. I would ignore people- I wouldn't brush it under the rug because you have a parental prerogative to be proud of your kid. If folks feel jealous or cynical about your child's early reading it's their problem. [/quote]
