My research question is, “What type of discrimination do people with learning disabilities face? What solutions are there?” This topic interest me because in 2010 in elementary school, my mother was told that I have a learning disability after I was held back in second grade. I overheard my mother telling someone on the phone saying, “They’re saying she has a learning disability, but I know she doesn’t, she just needs to try harder!” I already know that learning disabilities aren’t covered as much as physical disabilities and that other third world countries have high percentage in learning disabilities due to not having schools in their country. Some points I plan to explore is what is the reason behind people being labeled with learning disabilities and what are some ways to fix this problem.
