[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 478365, member: 11791"] I think the difference is that dyspraxia (Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD)) involves [I]more[/I] than just the senses... proprioceptive issues defintely have an impact, and are frequently co-morbid (but not always...). But Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is a developmental (ie. "brain") issue. Somehow, the brain doesn't seem to compute fast enough, doesn't specialize motor actions like most people do, nobody really knows yet exactly how this works. But one of the frequent tell-tale signs is that the person can often do components of a skill, but can't put it all together or can't do it in "real time"... really shows up with things like handwriting (fine skills) and sports (gross skills).
