[quote=Anonymous]The way I see it, their kid tested high IQ in one area and lower in another, making it average IQ. But, now there is an excuse that this is a proof of a learning disability. Rather than what we all know it to be, all people are stronger in some areas and weaker in some areas. But, rich can buy these diagnoses. my DD tested the same, high verbal, lower reasoning. Psychologist never once mentioned 2e to me, never. She has 504 and is considered SN, and nothing else. So what if her English scores on SAT are fraction under 800? Her math score is low, hence her score is average. If child has low processing speed that child will end up with a low IQ testing score. The rest of made up by parents as 2e. I don't believe in 2E, and I never have. I am a parent of two SN kids. Sure they are smart about somethings, but they are SN kids. 2e is a BS concept.[/quote]
