The problem I have is the notion that a child need to learn to do something that they are not ready to learn in order to make the administration of a bloated system easier.
Do you know that? I assume for years that my eldest
was just a late bloomer. He wasn't. He had an innate issue
that got in the way of his writing, and it didn't magically
go away with age. After learning some specific coping skills,
he was able to do better and eventually became much more
fluent with writing, though it's not something he enjoys
and he does much better typing. It had nothing to do with
school expectations or his age or anything like that. He'd
have struggled to write even if he'd been homeschooled, and
even if he could have waited until later to write.
That may not be the case for your son. Having
struggled for years before getting a diagnosis, however,
my advice would be to find out what you're dealing with
rather than making assumptions, as what you describe
sounds significantly more severe than what my son dealt
with.
Best wishes,
Ericka
