Oh, I'm sorry to hear that hopejordan..what kind of disability? Well cheer up though, I don't have a learning disability but I've never been good at math either...LOL...in fact I thank goodness for things like a calculator otherwise I'd be stuck...I sometimes resort to counting things on my fingers as well. I even failed a few math courses while in high school and had to repeat them all over again which put me behind

To be honest I think I may have grown up with one as I just could,'t remember anything at school, I was hopeless at math, I think it was mainly because I just didn't have the memory for those sorts of things, I guess we are all different and thats what makes the world go around.

My son has autism. We found out about it when he was in kindergarden. He has a mild case also so it took us a while to get him diagnosed. Since then he has come a long way. We were able to get him speech therapy and occupational therapy through his school system. He will be in 10th grade when school starts back and he has done very well in school.

You are saying that you are good at computer & not at maths. So only do the things that you are good at & you will be 'best' at that things. Then you will know your strenths. Be confident. If you cry at trouble it grows double. If you laugh at trouble it disappers like a bubble.

Hey i am a student nurse and recently did some work in a place where they cared for people with severe learning disabalities, and the people who they cared for were so fun to be around!! You aren't dumb, you just find things difficult that other people might find easy, and i'll bet there's lots of things you are good at that other people aren't! Everybody is individual and whatever they are or aren't good at doesn't reflect on how much they are loved and whether they are fun to be around!
keep smiling and happy posting! :-)

I don't have a learning disability, but even I am no good at math. I need to use my fingers to when adding big number, hey, even small numbers sometimes. It's not something to be ashamed off, everyone is good at somethings and bad at other things. My youngest brother was born after a difficult birth and he has learning disabilities too. But that doesn't make him dumb, he's challenged and has problems with some things but he's very clever at others and works very good with his hands. Better than I could do.
Have a nice day
