Dyslexia can be a very debilitating disorder if help isn't given, but in a society where 5 year olds are drugged with stimulants because they're not mature enough you can imagine that the disorder might be, let's say, overused a little.
Christ, when I was in school I once got told, to my complete surprise, that I was dyslexic; this is despite the fact I can read perfectly well, display none of the symptoms, and have never been formally tested! Current guidelines on assessing whether children have dyslexia are bullshit; I mean honestly, some kids are just thick.
some people do seem awfully keen to self-diagnose themselves/their children, which (in my opinion) cheapens what the real sufferers have to deal with. stupid people
The trouble is that in schools having a linguistic IQ score 60% below that of other types of IQ scores means you're classified as dyslexic. Why they can't just call kids thick is beyond me!
when are they going to realise that some people aren't good at academics, but are good at other things
not to mention how skewed the supposed 'objective intelligence' test might be
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
The Cutting Edge is a weekly article that features brand new selected high quality art products that caught our eyes. Check out the cutting edge prints some of your fellow artists have submitted in the past week!
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example.
