Things that help?

Well, you can ensure that the school uses its own love of testing and examining to ensure that every single teacher who works in a school, no matter at what level, first has to pass an exam on 'The Understanding Of Dyslexia'.



Things that help?

Realising that dyslexia is NOT a disease that can be cured, but a perfectly natural way for the brain to work.


Things that help?

For the Government to compensate every single dyslexic person on the streets, in our prisons, those who've become drug addicts and alcoholics...because of how they were treated at school by teachers who didn't give a f*ck!

Why should they receive compensation? Because they were made to feel, and often told outright, that they were stupid, lazy, troublesome and rude, when all they ever wanted was to be who they are, but were left to struggle in a system that has no time for them, no understanding.

School Damage last a lifetime for many, who are never picked up again, never truly believe that they are actually intelligent 'ordinary' people who simply have extraordinary brains.


Things that help?

For the Discrimination to stop. For companies to go back to interviewing people, not blocking them out 'online' so that many don't even get past the first page!

Things that would help?

For those who, for so long have chosen to belittle, to finally have the guts to stand up and apologise to all those intelligent, innocent souls they have hurt.


That's just for starters...

Oh, and for those who control to realise that Freedom in Education is the most wonderful thing which allows ALL to learn as they are meant to, by Mother Nature herself, instead of being rounded up like cattle and shoved into Factory Farms to 'obey rules'
