I'm almost 14 and somehow I knew there was something different about me compared to my friends and classmates. I struggled with things that seemed easy to everyone else. My parents and even my best friend said I was being lazy and not trying hard enough..I was really upset and decided to do some research. I found that dyslexia was the thing that related to me the most. It was early August when I found out that the reason for my struggling could me dyslexia. I've just assumed that I've had it, but there's something telling me that I should be tested to se if I really am dyslexic. I haven't told my parents about this yet and I'm afraid too. I don't reely know how to ask for testing. I am really smart, but I have to try hard to make sure that a problem isn't noticed by teachers. For Te first quarter in the school year this year, I got straight A's with a lot of effort. How can I ask to be tested for dyslexia if it seems like there's no problem? Help!
