Her processing speed is so slow compared to everything else. It really only affects her when she has to "write". The dr. seems to think that it stems from her "ocd" and need for perfectionism...Any insight? Any ideas to help with the processing?
Thanks.
If she isn't having a problem then there is probably nothing 'wrong' with being average a processing speed. The assumption that all kids are gifted is a myth, and mostly talking about Moderatly Gifted kids who don't have so much to say or think about as more unusually gifted kids. (Sure, it's a lot compared to ND kids, and still a myth, but LOG is still a new idea for most people, and not having that key piece of info confuses folks.)
Has she started to learn to keyboard? Learning to touchtype set me free to express my thoughts much closer to the rate that they occur! Really, I type faster than I talk!
Smiles,
