I would love to take my education ideas to those with Cognitive Disorders and see how many of them we can keep off of disability and having better paying jobs then cleaning toilets for the rich while working only extreme part-time and even then, only no more then 4 hours max a week. If we're lucky, we can even wash those tables at those fast food places owned by the filthy rich who don't care how clean those tables are most of the time. It all depends on how busy they are. If they are too busy, they just want as many orders taken before the customers leave as possible. And, those tables? You aren't allowed to clean them. The filthy rich (and I am NOT talking about ALL rich, just the idiots amongst them who do this evil thing) would rather we focused on getting the customers in and out as quickly as possible and make them eat crap on crapped up tables! Filthy tables...tables piled on with germs and disease! Yes, I used to work at one of these places. I'll never work fast crap food again...ever! Those of you who call them McShit... You be correct! They ARE exactly that! Some are franchised so the rules change some between the various McD's. Their food speaks for itself and yet people still eat there. Go figure! Once I had a real burger made fresh and hot in Olive oil (back when I was still keeping burger down), I never craved McCrap again! Yes, Adult onset food allergy to Beef and Chicken. Could I sue McD's for causing this allergy due to the amount of times I had to eat it? ROFL No, I wouldn't! Ever!
My educational ideas?
Instead of treating Cognitive disorders with several different Dyslexic Spectrum Disorder "symptoms" as one entity to be treated like we currently treat cognitive disorders, we should instead treat each symptom individual in the exact same way we treat each individual Dyslexic Spectrum Disorder.
Why? My Speech therapist treated my cognitive disorder's Auditory Dyslexia as Auditory Dyslexia. This made me learn how to hear properly what people were telling me. It was NOT a cure. I still heard scrambled words in key paragraphs, making the entire paragraph rubbish from time to time. However, I still managed to not only graduate from high school, but I went on to college because my speech therapist taught me very well! I wasn't relegated to sub-par education because with a cognitive disorder, I should just "make do" and do the best that I can without expecting to do much. I told that I can do what ever I put my mind to, and wanted to achieve. I was also told to not expect straight A's, but I should really strive for B's. I promptly ignored that as I knew that if I tried for a B I would get a C and that if I tried for an A I would get B and an occasional A- that I was aiming for. Yes, this is how my brain works! :D
What would happen if we were help them overcome Dyslexia like we do the bright students with dyslexia? I think we would have less people like me on disability. We would save the government millions of dollars every year.
This is all I have to say on this matter. My brain just kicked out. LOL

Sometimes I write in "Devils Advocate" mode just to make a point, or to get you to feel how I really feel, in the only way I know how. Thanks! I'm moderating all comments for this reason.
