[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure why, OP. It's a bummer. I see so many comments, questions, concerns about dyslexia from parents on DCUM and, while I do believe some are legitimate cases, I believe many are situations where the child just hasn't learned to read well. As the kids get older, it gets more difficult and they get more defensive and defiant. Refusal and low-self esteem kick in. Some kids pick up reading really easily with little hands-on instruction. Many kids needs explicit phonics works. Breaking words into chunks. Blending sounds. Learning complex and complicated rules and patterns. Site words don't work well. Someone on DCUM saved me when I was concerned about my daughter and this one person gave me the most valuable advice ever about teaching my child to read. [/quote]
