DS5 has the exact same issues! And we too are concerned with dyslexia / dysgraphia. He just turned 5 last months so I am trying to not rush things but I just don't understand how a child as bright as him who understands everything else pretty much instantly can be so lost in the concept of reading / writing. The school is not concerned because he's still doing well compared to his classmates but knowing him, we just see things are not right. If things don't pick up on their own by mid year, we will be pushing for an evaluation.

It's even harder for us to watch when his younger brother (DS3.6) learned to read on his own before he was 2.5 years old (and he's the one with disabilities)
