Hyperlexia and hypernumeracy

[yeknomyeknom]

My 4 year old boy appears to have this. Has anyone else had any experience with this at all?

Thanks. Hypernumeracy is not well known in this country. The automatic assessment by professionals for my child was autism but I don't think this is correct. I know that medical officials often are the experts but I also am very confident in my own knowledge of my child and very often mummy knows best.

There are three type of hyperlexia. Not all types are considered part of autism. Type three is often confused with autism.
