Lazy NOT Diagnosis Part 1 Jill Stowell

I recently sat down with parents, high school student who has managed to barely get by in school . When we have a thorough testing process is complete, we discovered that he has severe learning difficulties.

His parents told me very unfortunate that in the past, they were punished for their son and to take things away, because she was told that his poor performance at school due to “laziness and behavioral problems. ”

Have you ever seen one of these children, who seem lazy?

Maybe they always have their head on the table. Others just never seem to get started. Or maybe they just seem tired all the time, slowly, slowly, barely able to bring all the energy until it is time for recess, PE, or lunch. When asked about the homework, they would say they do not have the time or the right book, or maybe even say, but they seem not to.

When teachers have gone “Over and Over ‘, have done all they can do, and the student does not seem to try, lazy is often the only obvious conclusion to the left.

no matter how many teachers are frustrated,
What do students know that if
they could do the job, they would.

Work not consistently been really painful, and not a student wants to be embarrassed.

So what is the lazy-like children?

Difficulty with learning disabilities, it is usually in the background in one or more areas of inefficient processing or thinking skills, which are expected to interrupt their academic development.

Believe it or not, the basis for the development of learning begins in the womb.

There is a continuum of developmental, depending on the skill / ability-based group that develops before. If there is a disturbance in this development, at whatever level, can affect school performance.

frequently interrupted the development of skills is very subtle.

Jessica (really a student, but not his real name) is getting Ds and Fs in high school.

He can read, write, writing and arithmetic, but he did not pay attention in class, doing poorly on tests, and it will not work.

There are no major problems but he has lots of little challenges
* Her memory is a little weak
* Its focus is a little weak, so he quickly derived from a function
* He’s not a good follow up strategies, and his attention to organizing her homework and projects
It’s not an overwhelming handicap. He “comes along.” And it looks pretty normal.

In this section the tragedy
He’s pretty sure his parents and teachers are right to say that he is lazy and motivated, because he just can not watch him and to work.

Weak background processing, and executive skills to keep students can draw all works as expected. Instead, they struggle to stay, and contrary to the figures homework and test scores.

Most of the time they do not even know that there is nothing wrong. It’s the only way they always have been.

Jessica and her students like to get ignored because they seem to hesitate to try hard enough to succeed.

greatest tragedy? Parents, teachers and other professionals are (and remain) to deal with these students as if nothing is required, but the effort and if they really need, nothing more can be done.

This is good news –
These conditions can be repaired, fixed, repaired, so they are no longer on the road performance

Chapter 2, we identify the missing / weak skills and how to implement their school, work and life.
