[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school is lazy. No one wants to create a new worksheet with lines. That’s what is needed. You can either draw lines or tape guideline paper that is cut out for the squares on the worksheet, etc. The sad fact: no one cares as much as you, Op. [/quote] This has nothing to do with lines. Lines wont help. With this disorder the brain and fingers must exert SO much effort to get simple things out that it interferes with expression. This looks like messy handwriting, incomplete sentences, poor punctuation, underdeveloped ideas. Before we had Dx, my child was called lazy, not following directions or not trying enough. My child types now. When he was younger he used voice to text to dictate answers and then edit them. With this approach he can express his ideas and explain them fully, using capitalization and punctuation. All his note taking is done on a laptop today. He still hand writes some short form answers and lots of math as needed. [/quote]
