My son was like this as a 2 year old too. Fascinated with the abc and even learned his abcs in Spanish and Russian. He’s 4 years now and is reading at a second grade level. He knows the states, capitals and planets, some adding but his interest is starting to fade a bit since dad introduced him to video games.

i am a child genius. i can outsmart anyone under 5

Wow! The mom in particular seems very intelligent too. Both parents but notably the mom

Ya my kid knew letter sounds at 9 months pointing at the wooden blocks, knew all the colors at 15 months, etc. launguage shocked people, but many other kids do catch up. They make very intelligent people valedictorian etc, but genius ? Well, that gets thrown around too quick. That’s why you don’t hear about them later

Why are people positive and approving when a young child joins Mensa, but negative and disapproving when an adult does so?

Omg wonderful!

My two year old does the same thing. I’m curious what his IQ is. He doesn’t have hyperlexia.

Just a few alphabets, declared a genius 😱

sounds just like my 2 year old, reading big words but peeing everywhere but the toilet

[MikeFuller-okok]

Lol! I am 48 years old and I don't even understand how levers work.

[asiimwesimon]

Yet I still can't read some words right 😂

ANY CHILD can do the things she does. Read, write, do Math equations at the speed of á calculator. Follow the D’Oman method. It is hard work for thé parents but the results are amazing.

Her forehead looks boldged.. hope she has an amazing life.

My 2 year old seems about 8 years older than that child, not kidding.
