I'm a dyslexic parent who *hates* any kind of form, especially one that
requires that I gather a load of financial details. We have always been
late with our kids' grant forms, getting the relavant facts together (all
the Building Society Tax-Deducted statements for a start) is a nightmare.
Beve Hornsby gave a figure of 85% of children refered to her and found to
be dyslexic had a dyslexic parent, so consider our organisational problems
too.
