[quote=Anonymous]For me it always boils down to flashcards. My DS is severly dyslexic and my mom, whenever we are over there, is hauling out the flashcards, as if throwing pieces of paper in his face, rapidly, and demanding he perform will help. (He also has some anxiety issues, which are not improved with this.) Of course, part of my anger is because (a) I keep telling her that his brain just works differently and he'll get it when he gets it and we're in a great program and she basically ignores me; (b) she seems to think he's not very smart because he struggles to read and just doesn't always see the differences between "of" "if" "for" and "from; and (c) I had to do a hell of a lot of flashcards when i was little and I hated every freaking second of it.[/quote]
