As a parent, you might have identified signs of dyslexia in your child. You may have a family member with dyslexia (dyslexia runs in families).  Or they are just struggling in school, and you know something is just not right.  If you approach your school, they might say your child is at an acceptable reading level for their grade or a regular part of development.  The school told me that my youngest was a delayed reader since I must not read him at home.  When I protested, saying we read daily, they asked if I displayed good reading habits in front of him.  When I said no, I didn't have time to relax and read in front of them; I said I read when they are in bed.  They proceeded to blame me for his poor reading.  Did you know that 1 in 5 children have dyslexia, but 1 in 100 teachers understand or are trained on the signs? Don't accept the pushback from the school.  You know your child better than anyone.  The question, however, is what is next?
