Funny how my kids learned how to read before the age of 5 using a phonics-based method. No way will the govt. schools do this as they will not get all of the $$$$ they request because Johnny can't read.

Bingo. We can't teach the little savages how to be independent thinkers now can we ? It might just cause them to become conservative rather than liberal.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I started teaching my oldest at age 5 ( using phonics). The 4 year old demanded attention too, and she quickly learned to read. Then the 3 year pestered me for equal time, and she too immediately caught on.

Amazing! They looked like little midgets reading at such early ages.
