I'm so grateful for my mother because she was always advocating for me as a small child and made sure I got the best care. I struggled a lot in school but because she made sure I was tested at a young age I was able to get a lot of extra help at school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-have-your-child-tested-for-dyslexia#post-2577807 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 16:45:00 +0000 mediagirl 2577807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw this article today and it spurred this question: <a href="http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2016-06-29/missouri-public-school-students-to-get-dyslexia-screenings" rel="nofollow">http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2016-06-29/missouri-public-school-students-to-get-dyslexia-screenings</a></p> <p>We have dyslexia in our family, so we will get our daughter tested for dyslexia at an appropriate time. We were told she has a 50/50 chance of being dyslexic because one of her parents has it. IF she has it, we want early diagnosis so we can help as much as possible. </p>
