i am dyslexic, so is my 7yo. my oldest sister and 2 younger brothers are too

we have all, apart from my daughter, had IQ tests and scored very high, but that doesn't mean that we're high achievers. my 2 brothers got lots of help when at school, but have amounted to nothing and one of them struggles to even write

my sister, who's dyslexia was so bad she needed a scribe for exams, has a masters degree. she still struggles with a LOT

there are different levels of dyslexia and it can be really hard to live with.

being dyslexic isn't something that parents can just "label" their children with. they have to get it diagnosed with a lot of tests and be referred by their school (if school age)

sorry for long post, but i thought you needed educated a bit on the subject
