Hello! My name is Melissa Lapides and my son Ryan is 19. He was diagnosed at age 4 with learning differences. Please stay tuned as I will be writing an intro shortly. My goal for this blog is to help other parents, teachers, friends and family who have children with learning differences. I will share my experiences and hope to have professionals from time to time to share information. I hope it will also be a safe place to vent about the personal difficulties we have in raising these awesome resilient children.
