Dyslexia can set someone on two vastly different paths: it can be a true gift in the life of a dyslexic and it can ravage a dyslexic’s life.
HB3 was a historic win for dyslexia in Texas.
The Gift of Dyslexia
Dyslexics have been some of the most impactful humans in history – including Michelangelo, Einstein and Jobs – and the fact that 40% of self-made millionaires are dyslexic. Kids that discover their unique strengths and are supported such that they win the hard learned life lessons that come with growing up dyslexic develop grit and thrive.
The Dyslexia Crisis
It is not an understatement to say that there is a dyslexia crisis when 48% of people in jail are dyslexic and the cost to society is over $480B/year. Because most dyslexic kids don’t get identified, properly taught to read, or emotionally supported, most get emotionally damaged and marginalized.
