You know the scene where he is jumping/almost flying in the field. Was he trying to protect his identity, but,.....if he wasn't "superman" yet why would he need to?

This is the one point at which Superman Returns is a little at odds with Superman.
In Superman, he is pretty much super from the point he was pulled out of his pod, lifting trucks quite casually from a young age.
In regular DC continuity he didn't acquire his powers until the onset of puberty, until that point he was a relatively normal guy who would have fit in well with those around him.
Superman Returns seems to have adopted this point of view, and that scene seems to show him only just realising his powers.
Yes, in the past it has been assumed that Superman had his powers his whole life (hence SuperBoy), however Superman has had a fifty-year plus continuity that has often been re-tooled.

Who Cares, its a movie and not real.
There are continuity errors throughout the Film Industry and for the most part, the great 'Joe Public' doesn't care.
If you want to get picky then how can Spongebob drink a glass of water when he is under the sea?
Its whatever the maker needs to use to make the film flow or as an identifier.

Interesting question. Probably just so that the audience recognises him as a young Clark Kent figure.

I agree with Julius C. He did have bad eye sight as a child before he developed his powers.

He actually needed his glasses, but as his powers began to manifest themselves the need quickly disappeared.
