Guest guest Posted July 19, 2000 Report Share Posted July 19, 2000 For those of you with children that have learning disability's--I was wondering what are some possible signs of a learning disability and how hard are they to diagnose?? My 4 yr old daughter will be entering kindergarten at the end of Aug. and she cant/wont tell me her ABC's or her numbers. She can tell me our address and phone number, what state we live in but she cant/wont tell me her age. Its really frustrating me and I dont know how to tell if there is an actual problem or if she is maybe acting out?? Any suggestions, thoughts, etc would be appreciated. She is not hearing impaired, only her older brother is. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2000 Report Share Posted July 19, 2000 Hi , I also had concerns about what I called " holes " in 's development. had a period with no oxygen at birth, reeeeally low apgar scores, and a brain bleed, then his hearing loss so I was pretty paranoid. I also didn't know if his problems were just because he was a toddler or if he really had a problem. A thorough (and well given) evaluation really eased my mind at least for the time being. I think he did the Bayley eval. For your peace of mind though, I think it's really important to feel like the evaluation was given by someone who knew what they were doing. Good luck. -Daphne mom to , 4 HI Leo, 2 Learning disability > For those of you with children that have learning > disability's--I was wondering what are some possible > signs of a learning disability and how hard are they > to diagnose?? > > My 4 yr old daughter will be entering kindergarten at > the end of Aug. and she cant/wont tell me her ABC's or > her numbers.
