I’ve taught a class of kids that has various disabilities. Having a disability doesn’t make you stupid.

I mean… I can’t understand math? That was what I originally said?

Perhaps you have a writing disability too, or I have a reading disability, but your original comment seems to say that you are completely able to understand math despite having a learning disability.
Go ahead and check. I re-read it several times just to make sure.

Ah, ok. Yes, I meant unable. My mistake. I am just incapable of understanding math even at very basic levels, as I was reminded of again this year after putting my 13-year-old daughter in online school. I barely made it through the math classes I took in high school. College required a single math course and I took the “this is so easy anyone can pass it” one and barely passed it.

Alright then, glad we could clear that up.
I just wanted to clarify because I probably have a learning disability too but I never had any issues with math. It’s always been more about dealing with people.
