[QUOTE="Fran, post: 204237, member: 3"] I'm with mom_to_3. Just because traditional academics are very difficult for N doesn't mean she doesn't have the capacity to learn or isn't talented in other areas. Traditional study skills certainly don't work for everyone. If she chooses to not explore other options to help her in school then she is letting her weaknesses take priority over her strengths. Encourage her to get the help she needs. The school's disability counselor has a lot more knowledge and experience than you or N or us for that matter on how to get school to work for her. She feels pressure to do well. Unfortunately, everyone does. What she does to get to that goal is the question. You can offer suggestions and be her study helper but she has to want to find resources. You can't be there 24/7. Maybe she will find a way to learn the material and pass the tests but I doubt it will be the traditional way. [/QUOTE]
