It looks to me like a 'timo' - kind of cheating to poor parents for money....

What a scam. Perhaps when she read all the available books about gifted kids she might have noticed that you cannot teach 2 year old to read unless he is ready.

May be somebody could help her figure out that not everybody can be in the 99% wink

She's only about 49%ile points away from my friend who is convinced that every problem with our schools would be solved if we could just get every kid over the 50th percentile, crazy .

What? Do you mean actually burning? Should I call the fire company?

No, no, literal one. Maybe she'll fling her pants off and catch her website on fire.

Okay, I'm picky, but I'd buy her story a whole lot better if her ad were grammatically correct. Sound like "hot-housing" to anyone else?

That is really quite sad. I'm sure what her brilliant materials come down to is

1 - read to your child
2 - play games with your child
