The discovery that your child has a learning difficulty can be a frightening, disorientating experience. Many parents worry that, although they feel they understand their child, they don’t feel they understand their dyslexia. Just as the hardworking dyslexic child is left with feelings of inadequacy after every class test, so their caring, dedicated parents are left feeling ineffectual when they sit down to help the student him with their homework.
