My parents fought all year with this wicked woman. When I got to the 3rd grade my teacher recommended getting a tutor to help me work through my issues. It was not until I started using computer in 6th grade that things started to get better. I learned how to type (the wrong way) fairly well. It is still a daily struggle to read and write. I write this in Office just so I have spell checker.

It can be really hard for dyslexic. While you calm that 99% of bad posts are because the poster is lazy is all well and good….85% of all statistics are made up on the stop. I have no dout that some posts are due to laziness. However, many people are unable to find there own mistakes when proof reading something they wrote. They know what they meant to say; so when they reread something they wrote they are likely to make mistakes.
