[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds harsh . It’s really likely due to her learning differences. Public schools are out because she can veer towards the wrong crowd. She’s currently boarding and getting bad grades. LD schools don’t seem to offer enough financial aid. What other options do I have if she gets kicked out???[/quote] As the parent of a kid with a learning difference: fk you. Kids with LD aren’t automatically not smart. My kid has a 136 IQ. Her spatial reasoning and processing speeds are at 99.9th percentile. Her dyslexia is a neurological difference in how her brain processes the written word. It isn’t indicative of a lack of intelligence. [/quote] Another mom of 2e dyslexic/gifted kid saying +1 to this answer. There are enough “old school” teachers and admins and bosses and whoever else still calling these kids lazy or slow or stupid, they don’t need their parents doing it too. [/quote]
