Educate, Don't Just Accommodate:
Myths and Truths About Dyslexia and ADHD
The Myth:
Your child with dyslexia or other learning disorders and ADHD will always need accommodations to
substitute for solid academic skills and the executive function skills to apply them.
The Reality:
- Your child can learn to read.
- Your child can learn to spell.
- Your child can learn to write essays and reports.
- Your child can learn math.
- Your child can learn how to learn.
- Your child can learn to be a skilled, independent student who succeeds in school and
later in the workplace.
These same realities apply to adults with dyslexia and/or ADHD. There is no age limit
to learning skills that maximize your potential.
