Teaching the wrong way and blaming the child

 

Here is a Facebook post saying what I have been saying since 2010.

Enid Bailot on Dyslexia – on FB.2.10.2026

Research suggests most dyslexic preschoolers are happy and well adjusted. The emotional problems start when early reading instruction doesn't match their needs. Kids with learning disabilities often carry anxiety, isolation, and shame into the classroom every day. Dyslexic students are more likely to drop out. They face a higher risk of depression, substance use, and even suicide. In one Texas study, nearly half of prison inmates were dyslexic.

None of that is caused by dyslexia. It's caused by years of being taught the wrong way and told it was their fault.

 

Here are more websites and YouTube videos echoing what I have repeatedly said and criticized for. As I have mentioned several times, the sun, the moon and the truth cannot be hidden for too long.

These are in addition to what I discovered and wrote in my post here. LINK
