[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s telling you it’s because of math because she doesn’t want to tell you she’s freaking tired and slightly resentful (slightly now, later it will be greatly) because she’s given up a lot to be married to you.

Op here. This isn't accurate. Math is a big reason. She has a documented disability. A psychologist recommended math should be waived or substituted, and some colleges were able to offer that to her. She had a complete psych evaluation done and it says on the document if she doesn't get math waived or substituted, it is very likely she won't be able to finish. We moved around because I was pursuing higher education so that I could take care of things. There's no need to be harsh. [/quote]
What kind of condition makes her not be able to do any kind of math but everything else? Admittedly, I'm no expert on LD, but I've never heard of such a thing.

And I have to say.. it's ironic that a math professor married someone and procreated with someone who has an LD that makes her not be able to do math. Did you know this before you married her?

Is this a real post?  [/quote]

I wasn't a professor when I met her. I was a statistics teacher's assistant. Plenty of people have multiple learning disabilities. You sound like an awful person. I didn't marry her so she could do the math for me or discuss my job. [/quote]
who said you married her so she could help you with math? That wasn't the point.   But, there is some basic commonality that couples have.  You being a stats TA meant you had a background in math.

So you know she has an LD in math (and married her). You know that most degrees will require some math.  She probably feels defeated about it.

It is still ironic that a math professor is married to a person who had a LD in math.  I'm not being mean. I'm just stating the obvious.

I'm the PP who stated that my sister also has an LD, and she also struggled when she tried to go back to get her degree.  She had no support, and she had two kids.[/quote]
