Thanks a lot for the support - I needed it !
I have been talking to DD. Apparently she is very frustrated because she reads very slowly and cannot finish any book during her reading time.
So I told her that because she finds it difficult she does not want to try and becomes frustrated, then it becomes more and more difficult... I told her as well that she has too look at what she CAN do. One page? Ok, then next time, one page and half, next time a little bit more...
I remind her that a few months ago she could spell at all and now she is a champion.
I got her as well some very nice but very easy books to read and we read them together. She actually start recognizing some words and read them, which made her very happy.
She has told me as well which wall in her room is for the Spanish words and which one is for the Dutch words.
Before we read those books she told me that 'maybe she should be in Kindergarten'... I have the impression that she has the impostor syndrome.
I wonder if I should look for professional help.
It is really a pity that I cannot even apply to the Davidson Institute
(it is only for US residents).
