Learning Disabilities

Do you suspect your child may have a learning disability?  

Some questions to ask:

• Does your child get in trouble often for acting up or daydreaming?
• Does your child's teacher describe your child as unmotivated, lazy or inattentive?
• Does your child frequently forget or not turn in homework?
• Does your child feel overwhelmed by the amount of work assigned?
• Does your child have trouble organizing materials and managing time?

These are just some of the questions you can ask to help determine if your child may have a learning disability.  A diagnosis would require a complete assessment conducted by a trained professional. 

If you suspect your child may have a learning disability, learn more.  Talk to your child's teacher, school psychologist or program specialist.  You can also call or visit us at the Family Resource Center.  We have many books and videos on learning disabilities and are happy to assist you.
