My S can misspell the same word 4 different ways in the SAME sentence! He has no diagnosed learning issues but can’t spell to save his life. Fortunately, it has not hampered him academically or professionally to date and he has learned to love spellchecker. :)

By the way, one of my dear friends’ father is dyslexic. He is a full professor and has a PhD in educational curriculum. He has written curriculum for math & science for many decades and it has been adopted all over the world. He is president of my board of directors and one of the most brilliant people I know. My friend’s H is also a dyslexic. He has started a small alternative energy company and is doing very well. He has a masters degree in physics.
