[quote=Anonymous]I am very sorry your son is struggling.  
Sometimes money just will not solve the problem.  I taught first grade and, over the years, I taught two boys who were very, very bright—but could not learn to read.  I recommended them for testing and both were diagnosed with dyslexia.  (This was in two different schools.)
One of the boys was sent to a special lab school and given tons of extra help and support.  The other child was given LD help on a daily basis.  However, years later, neither child was successfully reading.  This was some years ago.  I would like to think that today, more has been learned about this problem and the specialists have figured out how to teach these kids.  
However, I would suggest you work on your son’s strengths.  I have a family member who struggles with reading-and math—but is quite bright.  He is one of the most financially successful people I know.  He had a knack with sales and made tons of money.  He may not read books well—but he is great at reading people.
