I too am not very fimiliar with learning issues. From reading your post, it sure doesn't sound like an elementary school level person who is writing about the concerns you have. It sounds like something is wrong somewhere in the system (not with you).

I hope that your parents would do you a favor & go to a specialist not in the schools you are going to, but somewhere where there are professionals that are extremely educated in learning disorders & other issues that are related. You do realize that in the past, the people who were considered to be geniouses like Einstein, etc, had learning disorders which weren't even known about in those times, but even though they couldn't function in real life, there were things that they were genious in.....& could way outdo anyone else.

Just because you have problems doesn't mean that there isn't something that you will be outstanding in.....it is just a matter of finding what that is without giving up.

Don't give up on yourself just because you are having a hard time right now.......the chances of you being one an awsome genious is always there & never give up of trying to find out what your passion in your life is.

With the right help & the right support, you can be more than anyone could ever believe, so never stop believing in yourself.....& lever let your parents give up either. You are valuable & there will come the time when it all falls into place.

Keep going & keep trying to find the things you are good at & enjoy.....there is nothing that can ever stop you from being a success........like I have told others in my real time life, the only thing that stops you is you.........so don't let you stop yourself.

I am 52 years old & when I started college, I went with an AA in Music.....very talented, but not enough to be the performer I really wanted to be, so I changed over to Computer Science for my BS. My career lasted for 15 years as an aerospace engineer & then that career fell appart. I lost my identity since for so many years I had identified myself as that aerospace engineer. It was such a traumatic loss in my life that suicide seemed like the answer even though I had gone out & bought the horse I always wanted & bought the most wonderful dog I could have ever wanted. I even showed his & got his champion title along with his odebience title. I bought another one of his breed & started breeding puppies & then bought another one that I used for visiting nursing homes. All of that still didn't fulfill my loss of identity. It took about 8 years to get out of that feeling of having lost myself & once my Migraines were under coutrol, I did realize that my passion in life was my horses & my dogs......who I know now saved my life & gave me the real meaning of love that I had never known all my life. What I am trying to say is that my confusion & learning have taken almost 53 years & now I really know how I am feeling & what I know my goals finally are.

Learning never ends....& it should never end until the day we die. There is so much in this world to learn & become educated in & things that fascinate us. Even though they may not provide the income we need at this time......we don't know what the future holds for us....& as long as we keep learning & finding out more & more things that interest us, the more chances there are for us to find the thing we will be successful at.

Keep going & don't give up.....I may not be very educated at learning disabilities, but I am good at not giving up on learning things that interest me & definitely not willing to give up on anything that I find interesting to myself....because I am what is the most important to me & what I want to know about is the most important thing to me also.

Don't get discouraged.......the right time for you will come & then your life will make the sense that you are looking for now.
