You’ve probably heard the following: “Boys develop more slowly than girls.” “All kids develop at their own pace.” “Jane just doesn’t fit into the public school box.” And perhaps my least favorite, “boys will be boys.” If you're child struggles, you've probably heard a variety of similar sentiments. But when it comes to your child’s education, when do developmental differences translate into real concerns? When do Jane’s oddities become something more than just hyper-individualism? When do Bobby’s reading struggles bypass typical development expectations? When and where do the real worries begin and what steps come next in really understanding your child's needs? In this class we’ll be discussing those questions and more as we take a look at learning (and other) disabilities, their early signs and symptoms, and how to be the advocate your child needs.
