Oh, how I can totally relate to this! I often get comments/questions from total strangers (like in the store) because my son (age 5) is a chatterbox and of course talking to him is like talking to a 10 year old (in terms of his comments, observations, etc.) So there's a fine line you walk when the audience who hears your answers to the many questions includes your child. I am proud, but don't want to make too much out of it, so I try to keep it short and sweet (e.g., he loves to read, he's great at math and we're very proud of him, etc.)
I often wonder, would people make comments/ask questions if your child was on the other end of the learning spectrum??
