Subject: RE: BS: Things that help people with Dyslexia
Sorry, Villan

I'll keep my opinions to myself then, whilst you all put yours down.

Tell me though, why are my opinions any less valid than yours, or others? Why are others permitted to say very similar, if not the same things as me, but you never take them to task over it?

"...Researchers from the University of Cambridge say they have disproven suggestions that prisoners are more likely to have dyslexia than the general population.

Instead, Dr Rice, says that a higher incidence of reading difficulties reflects the deprivations of prisoners' backgrounds.

"My research suggests that dyslexia accounts for no more cases than might occur by chance, and that most prisoners' reading problems are associated with social disadvantage?...."

That's rubbish.
