Dyspraxia ain’t autism but it’s a condition which makes people clumsy with coordination, brain, words and just in life but clever in their own way


Oddly enough I seem to recall dyslexia , dyspraxia and Dyscalcula all being lumped together with Aspergers and ADHD under the ASD umbrella .
That was over 20 years ago though ..

I found these little snippets anyway ..

1) speech apraxia – a relatively rare disorder – affects up to 65 percent of children with autism.

2) Although Dyspraxia may occur in isolation, it frequently coexists with other conditions such as Aspergers Syndrome, Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Dyslexia, language disorders and social, emotional and behavioural impairments.
