[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You should have some idea by now of WHY your child isn't doing well with this. Vision? Poor spacial skills? Lack of practice? Anxiety? I have a gifted and learning disabled teen, and I know driving will pose a problem because: 1. lack of motor coordination 2. problem with assessing distances 3. executive functioning deficits 4. slow processing speed 5. anxiety His IQ is in the gifted range, but for driving, it's not going to compensate enough. Like me, he'll have to practice for a very long time before he gets it :-) The solution is to PRACTICE MORE. [/quote] and the other part of the solution may be that he never is at ease with driving and constructs his life so he doesn't have to do it. [/quote]
