Whatever happened to being a bit thick?It seems that the second anyone young or old has a problem doing something,they have a name for it,its a syndrome.I know that there are some people out there with real learning difficulties and that these conditions do exist,and they can make peoples lives very hard,what i am tired of is people exploiting that and calling their unwilliingness to learn a "disability" when they are just not prepared to learn to read or spell.Also along the same lines,what happened to a kid just being naughty,kids arent naughty anymore,they are "tired" or "poorly" or anything apart from naughty,i also know that there are kids that genuinely do have condtions like ADHD and dyspraxia and the such like,this is a chemical imbalance,it truly cant be helped.I know several people that have kids 13 to be exact and only one of those people is honest enough to say "theres nothing wrong with him,hes just being naughty"She tells him off for being naughty and he stop,simple as.I'm not saying all parents are lilke the others who wont admit there kids are naughty and im sure there are people that know that they are just not the sharpest tool in the shed,im one of them,i cant do maths to save my life,i have tried and i just cant get the hang of it,im stupid at maths! what about you,are your kids sometimes bad,are you just bad at spelling,maths,technology?
