You can probably tell that I am of the same opinion as most of the others here: The sooner a child starts to learn, the better.

Wow. I was reading at 2 1/2 too, and made a 36 in reading on the ACT two years ago. I'm not just bragging here-the point is that every kid is different, and that there will never be a perfect educational system for that reason.
