Understanding Dyscalculia – Jun 2009

QUESTION: “I have a 15-year-old son who has been having difficulty in Math since grade school. Most of the time, he has been flunking the subject or his grades have always below average. What confuses me is that he excels in other subjects like English and Science. In fact, he even represents his school in these areas. Recently, I have read about dyscalculia and I thought could this be the case of my child? What are the symptoms of this condition? Are there long-term effects? If my child has this, isn’t it too late for him to undergo treatments or therapy? What are the options for people who are diagnosed late with this disability?”
