[quote=Anonymous]My son with inattentive ADHD, ASD, low processing speed, average working memory (depending on subject!), chose Latin because his issue was the type of fast recall necessary for verbal expression, and Latin is mostly a writing-based class. His school did not offer ASL, but that also would have solved that problem. Memorizing Latin declensions was a bear, but at least he didn't have to assemble sentences orally. We speak two languages at home, and by dint of weekend native language classes and being immersed at home, he can actually speak two languages... but learning a new one in school proved difficult, even with the verbal component.
