  70. Wow. My son is entering 6th grade. He has dysgraphia. His least favorite thing is writing. The process to figure out he had dysgraphia was terrible. One teacher in particular was treating him like he had something wrong with him and was constantly asking me to medicate him. We finally found out he feels writing is extremely difficult Reading and math are no problem. At first you don’t know what it is though. So he’s avoiding writing hard. Now he’s had a couple great teachers who are more understanding. At first though we were getting a lot of mistreatment. Where we are there’s no resources for this and the school doesn’t have an IEP. Nothing is set up for dyslexic and dysgraphic children and I think it’s way more common than people realize. These kids have an enormous amount of potential but we’re putting some in a corner because it’s easier. Also I don’t judge anyone’s choices but personally for us we didn’t do medication. I felt like the Aha moment that smart people have or the moment they see the “portals” would be robbed if they’re hyper focusing due to medications. I’m going to meet my kid where he’s at and still give him expectations but I do feel somehow that I’m failing him or the system is failing him because he can learn so much more than just sitting at a desk feeling bad because he can’t write. Also we were getting pushed meds hard and for a long time but meds won’t help dysgraphia and it’s terrible that people are just throwing this out there without knowing what’s really going on.

  155. I really appreciate this conversation and find it valuable. I have a hard time when people keep saying this is the revolt of the “working” class. I get that it’s the result of the lower half ish of income people I’d say that. Personally though it’s hard for me to say it’s working class bc I am a Dem in a red area and the people I know voting for Trump and it’s lots. A few have inherited wealth and though it’s not a huge amount they live rather easily in a county most wouldn’t want to live and they are A holes honestly And others just can’t do for themselves. Education is available they snark at it. They have prejudice language I think for sure. Working class of Industrial Revolution sure I’m with you Lifting people out of the potato famine hell yes But these rural folks live in the wealthiest country in the history of the world and they take advantage of that poorly I get I sound condescending but this is truly what I’m grappling with right now. Ok you’re the underdog Does that mean we should be listening to you? I guess in the broader sense it’s healthy for the system I think what I’m saying is should Trump and America be encouraging this lifestyle and culture of taking for granted education and living what seems to me to be an arrogant lifestyle where they didn’t care about politics until this extreme right wing came out with Trump The culture it creates It doesn’t jive for me even if Trump isn’t all the things they say about him. I don’t like how he uplifts these truly unsavory elements of society. In a true Democracy this is healthy I think But I still think these people on the right after they’ve made their point will be at the end of a leash because the culture is ultimately further left on most issues so I just wish we could skip this process and get to the more perfect union part This process sucks
