[quote=Anonymous]LD kids who have had support from home and involved parents are likely to go to college and be successful. Not everyone believes that, teachers and admin were surprised when I told them I was attending a 4 year college. I was in the top 10% of my class, had many honors and AP classes but for some reason my attending a 4 year college straight out of HS was surprising. If you have supported your child, helped them understand how they learn and you find a college that is a good fit with good support, your child with LDs will be fine at college. As someone said above, fewer than half of Americans have a college degree. Kids with LDs and ADHD and autism and other learning/emotional issues are less likely to go to college then other kids because learning is more challenging. But LDs do not stop a supported kid at college. [/quote]
