[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 521444, member: 1550"] It is VERY young to know if he has dyslexia. When I was six, I wrote completely backwards and left to right. If you held it to a mirror you could figure it out. I did not end up with dyslexia. It corrected itself and I was always a very good reader. This is NOT uncommon. He is just too young to know if this will change. I would not label this yet with this. It is pretty good that at four years old he can write even backwards. I work with four year olds. Some can only scribble. Unfortunately, patience is sometimes our friend. I am a little disturbed (and this is in retrospect) that so many kids are not given a chance for their brains to mature a bit more before they are labeled in certain areas. HE IS FOUR YEARS OLD!!!! Gawd! A lot of the boys in our four year old class can not write their names well. Some girls can't either. Honesty, back when I was a kid they took things more in stride and probably more k ids did not get help (including me), but in some areas, they rush too fast to say there is a problem in my opinion. Sometimes I wonder what they think a normal child is. in my opinion no two children develop at the same rate and girls are often faster in reading and writing. Hugs and keep us posted! :) [/QUOTE]
