I have a fourteen year old daughter who is dyslexic. We have recently moved to a British International school. The teachers and learning support staff are so helpful and she is receiving for the first in life help and support as part every day schooling. She is still far behind. The education system in New Zealand has done nothing to help her. I am proud of my country but when it comes to supporting children with dyslexia it get a D- from me

Parents are often the only advocates for their children and they ARE doing something about it in small ways to help their own children survive every day! The government need to step up and train the teachers to address the issues in the classroom. With more empathy and tolerance our children would not become so crushed.

GET SOME COLORED GLASSES! Like trying to teach a blind person to drive a car. You can tell them how to shift and turn, but they can't see the road. In 1988, 60 minutes aired a segment, colored glasses for dyslexics. I was severally dyslexic. I went out and got a pair. Purple was my color. Blues or reds are the colors that work best. At 28 I could read for the first time! I could see the print. It's a physical handicap. Side note, after laysic eye surgery I don’t need my colored glasses any more.
