While the school system unfortunately remains poorly suited to their atypical profile, children with DYS disorders learn, sometimes painfully, to work around their difficulties, giving rise to <strong>personalities that are often quite exceptional<\/strong>, with qualities born or built from the obstacles they&#8217;ve faced\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>Personalities shaped by DYS disorders<\/h2>\n<p>To this day, <strong>DYS disorders and their many nuances remain far too little understood.<\/strong> For example, dyslexia can&#8217;t be reduced to swapping letters around or a memory or spelling problem, because the reality is far more complex. For instance, <strong>Erin Brockovich<\/strong> suffered from dyslexia from early childhood, yet could memorise numbers written on a page after reading them just once.<\/p>\n<p>Today, it&#8217;s clear that many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dys-positif.fr\/la-dyslexie-et-les-personnages-celebres\/\">well-known figures from all walks of life<\/a> have had a DYS disorder: <strong>Albert Einstein, Pablo Picasso, Jules Verne, Steven Spielberg, Lewis Hamilton, Steve Jobs, Mika, Johnny Hallyday<\/strong>, and others. While many of them struggled with this disability, attitudes towards DYS disorders are changing: this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dys-positif.fr\/la-neuroatypie-juste-un-cerveau-pas-comme-les-autres\/\">atypical brain<\/a> is increasingly being seen as a strength, when used effectively\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that one study found that <strong>35% of American entrepreneurs have a DYS disorder?<\/strong> This figure highlights a profile of individuals who know how to take risks, who are used to falling and getting back up, and who manage to turn a weakness into a strength\u2026 A <strong>strength born from the obstacles faced<\/strong> since their earliest childhood, particularly at school\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>The great qualities born from their obstacles<\/h2>\n<p>Whether on their own or supported by a professional (speech and language therapist, psychologist, occupational therapist, graphotherapist\u2026), children with DYS disorders quickly learn to develop <strong>compensatory abilities<\/strong> to work around their difficulties. <strong>Shrewd, strategic skills<\/strong> that make daily and\/or school life easier.<\/p>\n<p>Children with DYS disorders generally show remarkable <strong>tenacity and unwavering perseverance<\/strong>. Constantly facing difficulty, they also tend to have a pronounced sense of <strong>empathy<\/strong> for others, which makes them <strong>attentive and understanding<\/strong>, more so than average. Finally, while they may struggle at school, they&#8217;re often <strong>very comfortable speaking<\/strong>, easily connecting with others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>All of these qualities make children with DYS disorders natural leaders<\/strong>: their powers of observation, communication skills, and sociable nature are all real assets for becoming great business leaders one day\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>Psychological support to build on these strengths<\/h2>\n<p>Nowadays, the main goal is to allow children with DYS disorders to grow up <strong>in a supportive environment<\/strong>, where <strong>their differences are recognised and valued<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Yet the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dys-positif.fr\/dyspraxique-pierre-lemaitre-trouve-lecole-inadaptee\/\">school system remains poorly suited<\/a> to their inclusion, marking their journey with painful obstacles to overcome. Until practices evolve, don&#8217;t hesitate to <strong>consult a psychologist<\/strong> <strong>to work on confidence and self-esteem<\/strong>, key pillars of personal development.<\/p>\n<p>The Ora-Visio platform gives you access to professionals trained in the challenges faced by children with DYS disorders: book an appointment with an <a href=\"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/distance-psychology\/\">online psychologist<\/a> and let your child judge for themselves whether this support suits them and helps them progress!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since 2005, learning disorders, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia\u2026 have been  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":345364,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[341],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-345363","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-psychology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345363","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=345363"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345363\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/345364"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=345363"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=345363"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ora-visio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=345363"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
