Describe two reasons why defining learning disabilities has been so problematic.?

Question

I really just need a site where I can read up on it.

Answer 1

It is hard to tell if a child is lazy or has a disability.
And parenting has a lot to do with how a child learns. As a matter of fact a parent is a child's first teacher. If that parent is doing EVERYTHING for that child, it teaches a child that if they hold out long enough the problem will work itself out or an adult will give them the answer.

Answer 2

Many "learning disabilities" are misdiagnosed as ADD/ADHD. And more often, a misdiagnosed "learning disability" is the result of an overactive amygdala, an anxiety disorder, or an emotional issue. Many kids are shuffled off and stigmatized that shouldn't be. After thorough testing, is a kid does have a legitimate learning disorder, there are many ways to cope with that. Sylvan Learning centers specialized in individual tutoring to maximize one's potential.

Places to look for websites, search for words like amygdala, anxiety disorders, learning disorders, brain function, brainwave evaluation
