Well I didn't get diagnosed until after I had kids and they started to get diagnosed, then my wife finally got diagnosed... So yeah it's all 5 of us. But I was diagnosed with dyslexia as a kid. So my wife jumped on it early. With each kid she used a program called "Children Learn Reading" to teach them to read before kindergarten. Then she got them in a program called "Let's Make Music" and had them playing piano by 5 or 6. Those combined with meds, has made my kids lives so much better than what I had. I was the lazy or dumb kid that wouldn't apply himself. My kids are seen as bored geniuses, that aren't challenged enough. The same behavior that got me yelled at and kept in from all the recesses, gets them self directed study and more interesting courses.
Everything is about optics.
