[quote=Anonymous]Second grade is when my son's issues became noticable. He's very, very smart but started to have this large backlog of unfinished work, all of which involved writing. Also, he'd always had bad handwriting, but when I compared his to his peers ... a remarkable difference. We had him tested and it turns out he has a motor/visual problem that is or is similar to dysgraphia. Handwriting without tears helped with actual handwriting, but he just freezes when he has to turn his thoughts into written word - even through typing. It's fine if he dictates, but somehow everything stalls when he tries to get it on paper. It's more than just motor issues. I'm planning to post in the not to distant future about OT. But seriously, have your child tested by a psychologist; it the detail and targeting of the results is really impressive.[/quote]
