For you own sake and sanity please do not compare your child to other children. My son did not speak until he was 2 1/2 years old and now he is extremly smart and is gifted in science and math. My daughter spoke at 1 year old and read at 4 and she is an average child in school. Most of the kids caught up with her and some surpassed her. So please do not compare....your child will catch up sooner or later. Now that my children are 12 and 14 I look back and saw how it is so easy to compare and wonder if your child is going to be a prodagy. Be happy when they grow up and they become respectful to all as well as having great social skills and beacome leaders in their group. That is very important that have have these skills as well as academic skills too. Teach them well in all aspects and your children will flurish and become great human beings
