Dyslexia may seem intimidating in that initial doctor's office visit, but learning some facts about it makes it easier to advocate for your child's needs. Our daughter's first public school classroom had no kindergarten teachers trained to help students with dyslexia succeed. Our daughter met other dyslexic kiddos when she began her first year at middle school. It comes from the growing reality that even though you can't make dyslexia disappear, working on cognitive skills with your child more than other children can make it easier for them to read and learn. Children may develop a negative association with dyslexia if bullied due to their learning disability. The Percy Jackson series makes dyslexia a superpower, and other books such as Dying to Know You, Life at the Speed of Us, and Playing Tyler show coming-of-age storylines with dyslexic characters. A simple internet search will make the world feel much more welcoming for a child who feels alone while growing up with dyslexia.
