[quote=Anonymous]Re: "I'm not smart--I'm dyslexic". I think that is also the age where kids are beginning to see themselves in terms of social categories (for lack of a better term). They're trying to figure out why things are different for different people, including themselves. They sort of think the world is arranged somehow, resulting in where they find themselves. Part of trying to understand the why, especially if they find themselves pushed to the side in any way. Learning otherwise is not accomplished in one conversation with your child, it's a long process, longer for some than others. That's another reason it's important to help them find the places where they don't feel that way. With the friends, other activities maybe when they get together?[/quote]
