I think it is harder for their dads if they are not around other children the same age. We go through the same thing over here. He actually thinks she is slow half the time and she knew letter sounds at 1.5, did complex puzzles,said things like "an octogon has eight sides" well before two, knew pentagons, trapezoids, etc. by 1.5, read words and easy books at 2, and was even spelling at two and on and on. She is three now and talks about feeling suffocated and needing to concentrate and enjoying conversation, makes up elaborate songs and stories and memorized hundreds of stories songs and poems and can read some fairly large words. I really don't know what is normal either, and even though she has been tested and has high scores, I wonder if she really is gifted, but people are contantly commenting on what she says and knows and I am around other young kids, but honestly, I really don't know what normal two and three year olds do. I do spend time with her, but she pulls things out of the air that surprise me and I didn't teach her directly
