[quote=Anonymous]My kid has dyslexia, and though he does okay in school and well in life in general I think he HAS special needs. He needs accommodations in school, audiobooks instead of paper books, etc. He needed and entirely different kind of reading instruction than his school offered. Ideally none of this would be “special,” and it would be offered to all kids. But that isn’t the world we live in, so for today his needs are special. I’m not sure I’d call him a “special needs kid” because that seems much more…defining. And while my kid’s dyslexia is part of him it doesn’t define him.[/quote]
