What Are The Adult Learner Problems?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Easy to say but hard to handle. Ive been there. My husband is considered "mentally retarded". He cant read or write very well. He has adult adhd. He's very gifted and can do more than people think. People think i must have been eager for someone but that's not it. If you ever have a problem with your vehicle, he'll tell what's wrong and what you need and how to fix it. If you're on the side of the road, he'll be there to pull you home. He's just that gentle hearted kind of guy. I have bipolar disorder, ADD, and OCD, but i was top of my class in school. I never needed special ed. He did though, all throughout school. I guess it don't matter how "retarded" you are, it only matters how you dream up your life and put your mind to the things you want to do.

      The people who have learning disabilities have difficulties in receiving, understanding and remembering information. Those suffering from learning disabilities have problems in learning and do not get things as quickly as the normal people. There are many different kinds of disabilities and an adult can be suffering from more than one problem at a time. Adults with learning disabilities have problems in solving a problem and may also show lack of attention.

      Learning disabilities are divided into verbal and non-verbal The two most common learning disabilities in adults as well as children are Dyslexia and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). People who have dyslexia have problems reading and recognizing the letters which makes if difficult for them to do reading and writing. People suffering from ADHD have problems in concentrating on some thing and their attention gets diverted very easily. These people are mostly not able to control their impulses.

      The factors on which the disabilities depend are Genetic influence, Environmental factors and brain development. The adults suffering having learning disabilities may be shameful about themselves and they also usually face fear of rejection, criticism, failure and judgment among many other emotional problems.
