What Is the Primary Reason Why Understanding Learning Disabilities Is

Multiple Choice

What is the primary reason why understanding learning disabilities is so complicated?

A) Each type of learning disability has its own causes and thus its own treatments.
B) The biological precursors of all learning disabilities are identical, so determining why different symptoms emerge is the emphasis.
C) The research indicates that in a majority of cases intervening actually increases the problem, so parents are advised to let the disability resolve itself. This, of course, often meets with extreme parental resistance.
D) Because there is no common thread that connects learning disabilities, and thus it is impossible to craft one treatment based on what we know about past successful treatments for other cases.
