"How come my friend's children speak so well for their age!?"
Ah.. it seems that you can't help but spend a good deal of time, either extolling the virtues of your child, or deflecting the topic away from the shortcomings of your child.
It's rough to be a parent, especially if you are competitive and need to show to the world that you are better in some way.
Let me just say... it is hard enough for most children, you shouldn't add that extra pressure onto your child. Having said that... how DOES my friend's child speak so well for their age!?
