Do I have a learning disability?
Determining whether you or your child have a Learning Disability (LD) can be complicated. Adults today may not have had access to services or tests to diagnose LD when they were in school and, even now, many schools are reluctant to test students who show signs of LD. Very successful people may struggle with an LD, and it can be difficult to admit that you or your child need extra help.
A Learning Disability can interfere with a person’s school and personal life in many different ways. For those with dyslexia, learning to read and spell correctly can be a major obstacle. If you have dysgraphia, writing-intensive tasks can be very difficult and tedious. more
