\"shutterstock_231951232_mini\" <\/picture><\/p>\n

We usually think of\u00a0learning problems or disabilities as referring to school\u00a0or academic problems.\u00a0 However,\u00a0many children who do well in school have learning problems when it comes to getting along with peers, learning various types of sports,\u00a0learning\u00a0how to regulate their appetites in order to reach their\u00a0ideal weight, learning how to regulate their moods\u00a0in order to enjoy life more, or learning how to get organized and make their lives more manageable and require less parental supervision.<\/p>\n

I like to think of any problem as a learning problem.\u00a0 That is, I assume that either there is either\u00a0insufficient reward,\u00a0a developmental problem, or some combination of the two when\u00a0a child is not learning a skill that they need to acquire.\u00a0 Fox example, if a child does not clean their room,\u00a0it is possible that a parent’s providing\u00a0a privilege or monetary reward\u00a0would help them learn to clean their room more often.<\/p>\n

If a reward does not work, then it could be a developmental issue.\u00a0Briefly stated, a developmental perspective assumes that a child cannot learn certain things until their nervous systems and bodies have developed to a point where they are ready to do so.\u00a0 In\u00a0spite of the best teaching strategies, we probably would not be able to\u00a0teach even a gifted\u00a07-year-old child to do Algebra.\u00a0 The brain’s abstract thinking processes have not developed enough to support the acquisition of such skills.<\/p>\n

In his book,\u00a0The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog<\/a><\/em>, Bruce Perry, M.D., details his work\u00a0 with children who have been severely abused and\/or neglected.\u00a0\u00a0However,\u00a0one of the outcomes of his\u00a0work,\u00a0the area of the\u00a0Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) has implications for all children (see, for example,\u00a0www.reclaiming.com<\/a> and \u00a0ChildTrauma Academy.com).\u00a0 Briefly stated, Perry and his colleagues\u00a0have devised developmental rating scales that allow them to predict what interventions will work best for the child.<\/p>\n

These interventions sometimes include verbal therapy, but they\u00a0often include more\u00a0basic means such as music, movement, breathing exercises, and drumming when\u00a0the child does not appear\u00a0developmentally ready for verbal techniques.<\/p>\n

When I was a child, I was a good athlete.\u00a0 I excelled in\u00a0baseball, football, basketball, and golf, but I did not learn to swim until I was 26-years-old.\u00a0 I tried very hard, and my parents provided swimming lessons for many years, but\u00a0my development\u00a0in this\u00a0area was far behind my development in other sports, as well as in academic areas.<\/p>\n

In brief, then, learning encompasses all areas of life, and some of us learn quickly in some others, and not so quickly in others.\u00a0 A thorough assessment of all of your child’s strengths and weakness should help you provide them with the intervention that is most appropriate for their developmental\u00a0needs.<\/p>\n

Remember my example with swimming,\u00a0however, and be aware that\u00a0your labor may not bear fruit immediately!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
