My younger son was diagnosed with Dyslexia when he was in Prep. We’ve changed three schools and I often refer to him as “ us” because it’s been a collective journey for the two of us.

Some of you must be struggling with issues of dyslexia and ADHD with your young children . As a parent who’s gone from pillar to post and with some good and some terrible experiences there’s a lot I have to share….

To me the biggest mistake was to label the child. It’s alright to get him / her evaluated but labelling them even in what seems to be their best interests at that time does the biggest harm!
