He's 3. What the frick do you "expect more out of him"?
Jesus, let the little kid be a little kid.

Expose him to everything.
children's museum, zoo, farmer's market
play sports-buy him a ball & bat
listen to classical music - buy him an instrument
show him art - make art with him
Grocery store - teach him foods/veggies/fruit & have them taste them
When he gets a litter older, TRAVEL with him. When he's learning American History in 7th grade & he's already been to DC or Pennsylvania he'll have a head start.
READ magazine articles to him about interesting animals or places or technology. Hang out at the book store and let him explore and see where he ends up (most have a children's section that you can be a little noisy in)
Bring him out into the world. Taste different food - have him help cook in the kitchen. Make everything a learning experience. Have him "pay" for items so he learns currency.
Bring him to a public park so he learns what other children look like that are different than him (different races, dress differently than him, sound different than you)
Yea and you need to discipline him. Tell your wife to get over it. All of the above is pointless if he ends up in jail...

Your kid isn't special.

Let him be a kid.. No reason to challenge a child that age, it will frustrate the both of you at that age.. Studies repeatedly show that playing and the interaction that follows is best from them.

Maybe your kid is dumb like his daddy

Read up on the signs of geniuses at three years old
It doesn't sound like your son is exhibiting them. Mentally stimulate him but don't act like he's in school when he's not yet
Use toys for that as much as possible. They make learning toys. I can't remember what they're called because my son is 15

But don't discipline him for the intellectual shite

Burn him with a lit cig whenever he doesnt meet your expectations.

Don't worry about all of that now, just get him in a great preschool next year. Until 4 or 5 you should just teach him how to play and socialize.

No tv m-th AT ALL. Lots of imagination games. Lay off the school work until school...trust me he will get his fill then. And so will you.
When they get interested in something, indulge them...even if it's weird. Will just be a specialized talent later on :-)
Evenings and weekend for family, not a million practices and sports.
OH! For pre k kids I always recommend the mimo (formally head sprout) reading program. It is THE BEST.

no harm in asking to maybe get some good feedback

It begins and ends with "spare the rod, spoil the child."

Are you the one who was flicking his 12 month old teaching him to behave?
