[quote=Anonymous] Do you notice fine motor, gross motor or coordination problems other than with writing? With drawing, coloring inside the lines, balancing, riding a bike, catching a ball, skipping, etc? As I said before on another thread, handwriting issues usually don't exist in a vacuum. It's difficult at that age to tease out what's normal from what's not, but stay vigilant and have him evaluated if necessary. My son has a coordination disorder - at 10, his handwriting is exactly like my 5 year old DD's. The thing is, I was told it's an offshoot of his inattentive ADHD, which became diagnosable much later than the handwriting issues. I would get Handwriting Without Tears or similar and bribe him to work on his writing :-) It got my son to a legible crawl, and might do wonders for yours! [/quote]
