5. My youngest son is dyslexic with letters

and has struggled to write all his life, but can read a blueprint and do math in his head faster than most engineers he has worked with. High school IQ 142. Self supporting, never been in trouble of any kind, mechanical genius, accomplished motor head. I’m very proud of him! Most of the right wing considers “learning disabled” to be a euphemism for “intellectually slow” but that is just a result of their own chosen ignorance. I feel for the children they drag up without proper educational and emotional support.
