[QUOTE="nvts, post: 344604, member: 3814"] Shari! This reading thing is wicked for him to get over - it will invade everything he tries to do. Has he been tested for various learning disabilities? I went to a seminar for a program called Lindamood-Bell a couple of years ago. It was tremendously interesting. Keep in mind that I have 3 aspies, and each manifests in their own way. They explained that a vast amount of our reading is basically anticipating what the next few words are going to be. From childhood on, we learn words and "make a snapshot" of the word and file it in our brain. As we get more adept at reading, we start to figure out what the next word will be in a sentence or paragraph. Some kids never form the picture. Plain and simple. Well, I was talking to my sister and mentioned it to her and her brother-in-law was talking about how hard it is for him to sit down and read something. He asked her if she just knows how to spell or if she sees the word in her mind before she spells it out loud. THAT'S the snapshot. Could it be that Wee isn't seeing the picture? Take a look at the website: [URL]http://www.lindamoodbell.com/[/URL] You may be able to have the school district pay to have him tested. My heart is aching for the two of you! Beth [/QUOTE]
