Your right from one point of view. Many can claim they are dyslexic but are just lazy. Dyslexia does exists, I have it. But I view it as NOT being a learning disability, and NOT being lazy. It is a learning difference. A dyslexic learns differently than the average person. Nobody learns the same way. With accommodations such as spell-check, audio recordings in class and peculiar reading techniques just for me, I have been able to learn my way and get my masters in Spanish Literature.

so ive had dislexia but ever since seventh through 12 grade i excelled in english and reading, i just read slower than everone and i studied twice as hard and eventually memorized how each word’s prefix and suffix make up the words. that helped me alot and i can now use huge words without thinkin twice about spelling. plus i can read music. yaaay progress lol

It all depends on what type of support you get in order to excel in learning. It would seem that most individuals who excel with dyslexia tend to come from affluent backgrounds, and the ones who traditionally come from lower income families tend not to receive the attention necessary in order to achieve, especially in schools..
Here in the UK, most government officials and politicians openly state on TV that dyslexic children are lazy and use it as an excuse to commit crime!!!!
