Thomas Sowell has a good article about late-talking kids. Most are boys. Most are math and computer geniuses. Most do not talk until 4 or 5. They get horrible treatment, as if they are retarded. I have known a couple of them. The intelligence in their eyes is so obvious. I said about one, "You can see the twinkle in his eyes, as if he is thinking - they want me to talk? This is more fun." Now he is a total chatter-box, extremely smart, an escape artist and a computer whiz. I will tell his mother about your son.

Well, my son wasn't a late talker. But all the rest is exactly right.
