what's even more frustrating is when it changes daily!! 2 days ago, ds completely happy tracing letters, yesterday, flat out refused. wink

What I have realized thanks to the collective wisdom is that you have to check your own baggage at the door - I am 2e - which was undiscovered because of my immense coping skills, when I began to not cope, then it was a behavior thing, you aren't working to your full potential. Fleshing out my ds capabilities, strengths and weakness have really pushed some buttons in terms of my parents and how they handled me and views about what I could have accomplished - and some of the other topics, like the dx dyslexia one and the one from syler.
