My dad always claims he taught himself to read at age 3, living on some old farm in the middle of nowhere.

- BizarroLand 4y agoThere is a thing called hyperlexia where young children will teach themselves to read. My dad had it and I did too. It's not a big deal even if it is rare, and it doesn't seem to correlate to life success or intelligence. My dad was good with numbers and above average intelligence, I'm good with numbers and gifted intelligence, but big whoop, no one cares.
