The Truths About Reading Disorders

By Essie Osborn


Learning is a major process for every child. Without this ability to learn or if a part of the process is damaged, the individual may have serious challenges in their life. They may have problems in their education, social life, personality and even self-confidence. Therefore, it is important that all reading disorders be treated immediately they are noticed.

All book learning hitches are triggered by two main issues. They may be instigated by biological or linguistic problems, which are initiated by the children themselves. However, they can also be caused by external issues such as the social life and families that the affected individuals come from.

Kids who are mute, deaf or blind may have challenges when they read. These disabilities are caused by biological factors. Another reason is disorders in the brain of the child. Comprehension problems that result from these factors can be described well by doctors. They also know how to handle kids who suffer from such conditions.

Learning problems can also be instigated by factors that are outside the body. These external issues tend to affect children who are sick and those that are not. These problems may be caused by the environment that the child lives in, their school, social life and family life. Usually, families that have a schooling culture tend to have children who love learning.

The affected children may have symptoms such as troubles identifying words, difficulties with meanings of words, spelling problems, transposing of letters or words and poor comprehension. As a parent or teacher, you will notice an outstanding difference in the comprehension of the spoken versus the written word. The children tend to be slower when they read when compared to other children.

The learning process involves different components that are combined together. These include eye muscle coordination, visual memory, ability to sequence, integrating visual signs with memorized phonetics and ability to associate different sounds with their denotations. Therefore, if any part of this entire procedure is interrupted, then a reading problem may develop. However, there are different diagnostic and detection techniques that physicians can use to identify these problems.

If this problem is detected early, there is a higher chance that the treatment will be successful. Therefore, parents who detect any challenges in their children should seek medical help. Affected kids who go to curriculum based or intensive academic preschool programs are detected early compared to children who delay their schooling.

Treatment options are readily available for these problems. A comprehensive assessment of the vision, intelligence and hearing of the child should be conducted. This will help to diagnose whether the youngster suffers from any other problem. This is because some kids will also have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or autism.

It can be quite difficult for any parent to know that his/her child has learning difficulties. This is because no one wants to see his or her kids suffering. However, you should remember that most of these children are smart just like the others. All that they require is a reading style that is tailored to their unique needs.
