Perhaps you could advertise how dyslexia is a gift (which it is). And perhaps you could point out that 25% of the population will never have the luxury of this "bonus" ability that 3-D spatial thinkers (dyslexics) have!

I'm preparing a graph right now which illustrates why those at the top who master the language are 2-D linear thinkers and those on the far spectrum are 3-D spatial thinkers. Just to prove a point that most people fall within the bell curve, but those at the far ends of the spectrum will never come to meet or understand one another.

Now that I learned this from the book, "The Gift of Dyslexia" I am able to deal more effectively with the Administration at schools where my market lies with also. I wrote a phonetic dictionary for dyslexics and there is no reason every single dyslexic child should not have one of these to use with their schoolwork. It takes hours off of their homework time. Try the library, they probably have one, it's in 32 countries.
