Guideline for Parents

2. Identification of the difficult

These children’s families naturally have different feelings. Evaluate your own feelings.
Some parents see that extrinsic factors are the cause and they seek solutions by changing external elements such as the school or the teacher. Some feel guilty, others feel angry. This worrying situation leads to depression in parents. All these, in fact, are related to not accepting the problems. In this case, evaluate how you react to your child.
The most appropriate approach for children and parents is that the parents accept the problem and they choose to help their children.
Consult to the professional experts and institutions in order to apply oral and written tests to the students with learning difficulties.
