This is actually astonishing! As the mother of a 15 month old baby that can neither walk, read or talk, naturally I have been combing the footage to see what trickery is being perpetrated, believing that it surely must be a hoax. But no, it seems that little baby Torin is putting my lazy baby to shame. The proud and patient dad posted the following message: "This is a new game we play with Torin. He is 16 and a 1/2 months old now, and he learned all the words in the Your Baby Can Read program a few months ago. I have made him new cards to continue his language development and every day he learns 1-5 new words." As always the comments section threw up a few interesting viewpoints such as this: Screen Shot 2015-03-07 at 11.23.28 Baby Torin obviously gets his intelligence from Dad, aka Ugatrotters, who sensibly decided to avoid the contentious Vax-debate. Unsurprisingly, this video has sparked my crazed competitive parenting, so I'm off home to do some cue card drills and put that lazy baby through its paces. It's early acceptance to Mensa or nothing, I say. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbazdZ4erl0
