Description

I didn't know whether to say "I have a learning disability" or what I have now, "I have a learning disability but I am not stupid, just a slow learner." ? -shrugs-

Slow learner ≠ stupid.

Everyone learns a different paces. Anyways, of course, I have a learning disability ...but you cannot really tell until you actually know me. I have a love/hate with my learning disability and I struggle in life with it everyday.

I saw a lot of negative stamps for people who have learning disabilities....well the ones I saw were pretty negative. I searched up "learning disability stamps" nothing showed up so I made one.

There are some people in this world that do not get that we are just slow learners and they think we are stupid. I wrote a whole paper on learning disabilities and what people think if they should be in regular classes or in their own classes. :/ I was not pleased with the answers I got. We are not stupid, we are just slow learners. We learn stuff at different paces. And people either get it or don't get it. It just how it works. I wish people would see that we are normal students trying to fit in like everyone else ....not some outcasts who are trying to get in everyone's way.

Idk. It is a hard subject to talk about, with some people...I guess. Some of my friends believe me that I have one, some of them don't. Some of them don't even believe in learning disabilities and call me "lazy" for not trying harder. :/ But sometimes I just do not get it. It just doesn't click. -shrugs-

There are some things I get in this world and some things I do not get. Though, I think what irks me with people who do have learning disability is that they use it as an EXCUSE to not do things. I know this one kid who use to go to my school - he was just being lazy and blamed his learning disability for his grades/etc.

I have a learning disability and I have all B's and A's. So yeah, I can see why people think that people like us can use excuses. But other times it isn't our fault that we get stuff wrong or we make mistakes.

I also dislike how smart people who do not have learning disabilities use their brain to rot. It irritates me so much! If I had the power to do so much more and understand so much more and faster I would! But I cannot. And it frustrates me. This is what my brother does. He is SO LAZY and doesn't even TRY and he is SO SMART and I look up to him so much and he gets B's. He can get straight A's if he wants, but he just wastes that knowledge away. D8 It frustrates me so much.

Anyways ~ Feel free to use.
