Thousands of children who have dyspraxia are misunderstood and unfairly labelled, according to a survey published today. Sometimes unkindly referred to as "clumsy child" syndrome, developmental dyspraxia is an impairment of the organisation of movement which can lead to problems with coordination and simple day-to-day tasks many people take for granted.

Hi there,
I have a son, Anthony, who is 21 later this month and who was diagnosed with Dyspraxia when he was 4.
I have decided to put all the major expriences and "epiphanies" into a Blog.

I'm keen to find out if other parents would be interested in stories of hope .. and what to prepare for,
So I'd appreciate it if you would publish this letter on your website and see if you can reach people who might be interested in learning lessons from my family's "on-going" story.
Many thanks
