Hi, my daughter has Spina Bifida and is at main stream school. She seems to be getting on ok academically but did have an ed psych assessment when she started because her teachers said she had problems 'retaining information'. The report was fine and they suggested keeping an eye and re testing if needed. Anyway. It's all gone quiet on that front at school so I assumed all was ok.
I've really noticed that she has problems listening to what people say to her. Ask her to repeat what was just said and she won't be able to tell you. If you have a really sincere one to one conversation she will just stare into space and interrupt midway with "Anyway" and will continue with a new conversation. I honestly can't tell whether she is just simply being rude/ignorant or whether this needs looking into. She does this all the time despite me saying how rude it is to not listen ect. I'd love an honest opinion? I'd hate to be telling her off for something she can't help
