It took a private assessment when my son was 11 to finally get a dyslexia diagnosis. Most children are assessed by age 6/7 if it's evident from the time they start primary school at age 4/5. I questioned his school teachers but was fobbed offUsually they don’t test for dyslexia or dyscalculia until they are 7, which would have been during the time she was home schooled. There would have been huge delays in getting tested and the process to get assessed takes ages, whether you’re in a private or state school. They decided to go private, but Anna also said she’d been meaning to book the appointment for ages, so the further delay was her lack of organisation. My bet is, they wanted it doing so she’d get (much needed) extra time in her sats and for any exams/applications she’d need for the private school
We went through the primary school dental care system to have our children's teeth cared for from age 7 I think. Every year the HSE has screening for hearing, eyes and teeth depending on age and class of the pupils.Ten bucks she wouldn't have been taken for an eye exam if it wasn't required for the assessment.
Wish the teachers could come up with something to make them all go to the dentist for a check-up and to start A1 on a thumbsucking device.
I was diagnosed with dyscalculia disability by a maths tutor when I was 12 I went years without any help and my school didn’t really know what it was. I hope they don’t try using this to force the school to give her a free ride !!!I've not watched the video but where is the word disability coming from? Anna or the people on this forum?
Dyscalculia is not a disability. There is a huge difference between a learning difficulty and a disability. Let's not patronise either of those two communities! Not surprised at all if it came from Anna though, she's so bloody weird
They don't understand jack shit. They are ignorant brainless thick culties.It’s sad that they clearly don’t understand Dyscalculia and we all know they won’t make the effort to understand it either. It’s not going to just be a matter of Emilia getting extra time in exams, it’s going to be a lifelong struggle for her and it’s frustrating that they are broadcasting it for the world to see before Emilia can even understand it herself.
Yea that is very strange. My daughter is 5 and practically has a drink at all times throughout the day. If my child was thirsty and asked for water denying them is just cruel? You wouldn’t refuse an adult asking for a drink.Ive seen anna a few times say when the kids have asked for water ‘you dont need water’ and its shocked me every time. Water shouldnt be something thats controlled by parents. A1 asked for it today and the car and she was told she didnt need it as she would be going to someones house. What if she wanted some in the car? She also knows A1 gets shy what if shes too nervous to ask for some at her friends house. It just seems like such a horrible thing to tell your kids no to water
unless they're deers or foxes , beings don't get any attention or compassion from Anna...Yea that is very strange. My daughter is 5 and practically has a drink at all times throughout the day.

That's in Ireland, isn't it.It took a private assessment when my son was 11 to finally get a dyslexia diagnosis. Most children are assessed by age 6/7 if it's evident from the time they start primary school at age 4/5. I questioned his school teachers but was fobbed offbecause he was well behaved in the classroom and was pretty average in language development. Only 2 assessments are made per year apparently in the school. Most parents end up going for a private assessment which costs a fortune. Sadly he fell through the cracks at primary school and should have gotten learning support and extra resource hours to support his learning. He's now heading into 3rd year at secondary school and there is no support at all and his teachers still want him to do subjects at honours level.

Just wondering how can this disability affect other parts of her life? I'm curious about this.So, I watched their latest vlog on yew tube(I refuse to give them views on you tube) and I made me so frustrated. I studied dyscalculia as part of my masters, so was wondering how they’d approach it all. The whole thing was off. It was almost like they’d be disappointed if she didn’t have it??Depending on the severity and what kind of specific difficulties she has, it can have an impact on her whole life. I don’t get why they behaved like that. Whilst I do appreciate they were saying it was her superpower, Jonathan’s reaction when she said she didn’t have it, then when she said she was joking- said it all!
It frustrates and saddens me that they’ve broadcast this to the world, yet didn’t consider that emilia might not want people to know! They’ll say they were “raining awareness” yet there are other ways to do that, without exploiting their children. Did anyone else notice that anna still made it about her and edie?
Two more things- their portions- STILL! My 1 year old nephew eats more than that!!
Lastly, if my child pointed a fake gun towards me, I certainly wouldn’t be keeping it in and would be telling her not to do it! Emilia does not like her dad one bit!
Understanding and managing money / time, time intervals, time tables, time keeping / measurements (weights/lengths/area etc) / cooking instructions (time/measuring ingredients/temperatures) / understanding labels & ads which include numbers / spatial issues / shoppingJust wondering how can this disability affect other parts of her life? I'm curious about this.
I can’t be bothered to read the book but what things has he said about his childhood? cause I also wonder what his mum and his siblings think of the things he has said and if he is even telling the truth about majority of what he says cause you never know with what comes out of his mouth what’s true and what isn’t.Just read Jonos book (very weird and unbelievable) and wondering if any of his family members ever commented on what he has said about his childhood?
