[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, I an pretty smart but have such severe learning disabilities that when you merge the two together I come across as dumb, basically. Send her away to a state school. She will fail out, but will learn a ton about herself and her abilities compared to other kids.

I was much more successful at work than at school. Even with that, I still have a hard time at work and get fired from jobs for being too stupid to understand things sometimes that are a job requirement. Even into my 30's I still sometimes called my parents hysterically crying because I couldn't understand what my boss said to do. She could maybe be a bartender, a receptionist, a bookkeeper, etc. after she fails out of college, tell her she can work, go to school, or do a combo of both but she needs to be productive 40 hours a week. I took five years to get an associates degree from comm college and am an exec asst. [/quote]

I cant tell if you are joking or not.

But if you aren't, don't feel bad, because I still want to cry at work every day because I don't know what the hell my boss is saying. It may not be you, if your boss is like mine, its because what they are saying actually makes very little sense :)

I'm not joking at all. This is my life. I have never kept a job for two years. 22 months is the longest. I hate my brain. I can't read a map to save my life. I often have to ask for help with basic things but then can't even understand the advice given. But I do support myself. [/quote]
