This was copied and pasted directly from the youtube link:  "The purpose of this presentation is to provide parents with some coping strategies to help children with dyslexia and/or other learning disabilities. Strategies for coping with schools and the school system, teasing and bullying, and the lack of self-esteem in the child with dyslexia will be discussed. Ways to boost self–esteem in children will be illustrated with concrete examples. The role of fathers and/or other male figures will be outlined. The positive role of parent support groups and organizations such as IDA will be stressed.

 The word psychological is misspelled in the slide. Also, the handout is not available, and the speaker references the handout often. The information at the beginning is very informative.
