Like anyone else,pretend all is well,yet work behind scenes to ensure they are safe and working upto desired levels with others of their age group.
First and foremost, parents must recognise and accept that their child has a learning disability, denial can eventually cause emotional upheavel for both them and the child. A professional diagnosis will then help in deciding which path to take ie Mainstream or specialist school. Be honest and open with your child, they are not neuro-typical and trying to tell them that they are will again cause problems, but do tell them that they have a future and there is absolutely no reason why they can't go on to maximise their potential and lead a fulfilling life, albeit within the constraints of their disability.
Parents, of course, should love their children without thought of a learning disability (or any other disability). Since parents know their children better than anyone, it is up to them to be their child's advocate, protector, first teachers, and cheerleaders. Parents can have their children assessed to find their exact level of functioning in all areas and find information and ideas about ways that they can support their child's further development. Any child, with or without a learning disability, would be lost without the support of their parents and families.
Fun, humour and act/involvement are the keys. It's not only for a kid but for all age groups try to identify the main motivating factor which can make them interested in learning and can get them involved. Follow same because we learn when our mind supports and our mind always loves to think about something what we find good. When a child is there with learning disability try to find out what he/she likes or is good in which can be playing, eating or smiling or what ever the key is to involve that in learning processes. If a kid loves to smile and we want to make them learn counting smile ones in front of him and ask how many times I have smiled and all, next make2 smiles on a sheet and ask him how many smiles can you see, just an example we can think and plan many activities as per the age group we training and their likings.
The key is to find the liking factor and involve it in learning.
Thank you.
Don't call it a disability, if a child is being told that he/she is not good at something it will demotivate to try harder. So keeping it as simple as possible, don't treat the child different but help finding personal training methods and show a lot of patience. Every person has his own way of taking information in. Don't push it to hard at a young age, when children get older, they often catch up and will become good in what they really like. The early years are crucial for developing self-esteem and confidence, and those aspects are important to grow and to learn in school and life.
