[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a difficult situation to see your child suffering. I think a lot of people here have probably been through a similar situation and it’s hard. Unfortunately we can’t count on the school to do what is best ( identify and remediate) our dyslexic children. For your mental health it is probably best to start with outside tutoring and to not measure his abilities by the traditional benchmarks for NT learners, especially in elementary school. Try to get him on a path where he sees some success with reading ( OG tutoring) and build from there. His timeline for learning is going to be different from a traditional learner. It’s ok, he will get there. As the above poster stated, even with an IEP , the odds of receiving significant OG instruction is incredibly low. It’s incredibly unfair to these kids. If you have the time and energy consider getting involved with advocacy ( Decoding Dyslexia). [/quote] OP here. Thanks, this is sound abs thoughtful advice. It’s just upsetting that the school system takes a “wait and fail” approach. [/quote]
