Answer 19

Hello,

(ANS) NOP!! Dyslexia IS 100% a real condition. I should know because I used to be far far more dyslexic than I am now a days.

**I had really serious problems when I was learning as a school kid but I'm talking about the early 1960's and 1970's when dyslexia was only just starting to be recognised as a real condition. Now a days I don't really have any problems with maths, reading or writing but it has taken a long time to reach this point.

Answer 20

Dyslexia is a real condition, where people see letters upside down, back to front, or rotated at odd angles which make them difficult to read.

Sadly, many children who are dyslexic are now said to have 'dyslexic tendencies,' as labelling them as dyslexic would have cost implications which local education authorities either cannot afford or do not want to pay.

Answer 21

Answer 24

This is a real condition that affects the person's ability to read, learn, and later may affect their employment opportunities.   It has taken a long time for educrats to recognize the impact of this disability that is NOT related to intellectual ability or hard work.  Even geniuses can have dyslexia.

The brains of people with dyslexia sees words in jumbles, prohibiting them from distinquishing correctly the written word.     Go to www.dyslexia.com and you will find all the information about this learning disbility you will need.

Answer 31

This condition is very real, my son has suffered with this for many years, along with this condition came Mirror Vision, also he is ambidextrous, do to these conditions, he has very little self esteem, and no self confidence but what a great guy he is. He has compassion, empathy, ethics and great morals.
