There are further great articles in the free NOMANIS publication, see here:The proposed solution of getting rid of the term dyslexia is like using a machete to slice a lemon.The problem is not the word dyslexia. Reading and other learning disabilities are a serious problem for society. Dyslexia and other learning disabilities are not being properly recognised and treated in our educational system. These learning disabilities cost society a great deal, not just in money but in social and emotional problems. Antisocial behaviour (as in prison populations and juvenile detention centres), homelessness, drug addiction, suicide and emotional difficulties are often a result of dyslexia and other learning disabilities that have not been properly identified and/or treated.These social, emotional, and educational costs can be significantly reduced if we identify and treat the problem of reading difficulty.
