Ugh. This upsets me. Her happiness (a mere child) is sacrificed to make it easier on the teacher and school. What she needs is less meds and a scribe and word processing access. That is what my DS gets otherwise he'd be in the exact same boat because his ability to write is none-existent and dysgraphics write each letter very slowly they have to think about how to form each letter and number - EVERY time - it takes up so much energy, time and attention. But you know that is what she needs and that is why you need a diagnosis and accommodations of dysgraphia. I totally understand.
