There is no doubt that your daughter is gifted -- and the spelling may indeed indicate a learning disability. I, myself, have dyslexia. Are there any other indicators for you daughter: Organization or sequencing problems? Handwriting or Reading-speed issues? Talk with her about your concern and see if she would feel comfortable with a further assessment to learn more about her needs. Assure her that you already know that she is bright, but want to know if she needs any additional support. This could become even more important as she moves through school and college. If she is agreeable, ask your pediatrician about a reputable psychologist who is familiar with gifted children and learning problems. I will be doing a full day session on this topic at the Council for Exceptional Children's Conference in Kansas City, April 18th. Come if you can!
