When a group of mothers realize that the NYC school system is not supporting their children with dyslexia they take steps to help their kids even it means suing the school system or starting their own school.
This is an excellent look at being a parent with a child who learns differently. Having had dyslexia and having been forced through a normal system I completely understood what these kids and parents were going through. While I was lucky and stumbled into teachers who could help me learn, that isn’t always the case and some parents have to take matters into their own hands. Watching the film I could see myself in these kids.
What I like about this film is it makes clear why these kids need to be helped how the extra help makes a difference. We get to see the result of the teaching kids with special needs- and make them so much better and thus make us better.
What a great film
Highly recommended.
