RE: For those with Children
"This is want the Dr told me. He has some learning problems as well."
Hey Kim I am a special education teacher who teaches kids with emotional disabilities and learning disabilities. When a doctor says that, he may mean your son does not learn well from books....not from a verbal exchange or from hands on learning...there is a big difference. My older brother did not learn well from school but can learn things from hands on work. He barely graduated from highschool but now he owns his own landscaping business and is a great worker and employer.....if a doctor ever says that to you again, ask him/her exactly what they mean(if they have any idea)...I would be glad to help you with anything to do with your son and his "learning" issues...I have kids at my school who can barely make it from one class to another without getting in trouble, yet they have 120-130 IQ's...I also have kids who are 6 foot 5 and are 15 years old, yet emotionally act like they are 5 years younger. It is nothing to be ashamed about. Best of luck and if you need any support, let me know.
