I can honestly say I have no memory of not being able to read. My parents figured out I could read when I was two and could read names on television without hearing them said.

Same with me. At a young school age, I was reading much higher level books such as stuff for high school and some college.

Instead of Dick And Jane, I preferred JANE’s books and their equivalents that the public library had.

In the typical public skrool way I was punished for it for a few years up through middle school by being put in some kind of development class with people that were polar opposites with learning disabilities.

Same here. My parents said I just started reading a cereal box to them when I was 2 or 3. I remember seeing them holding my younger siblings on their laps and reading to them while underlining the words with their fingers, and none of my sibs needed to be 'taught' to read either, so I assume that's how I picked it up too.
