There are many books on dyspraxia and lots of web sites. Try www.dyspraxiafoundation.co.uk for a reading list and advice. it is not the end of the world but these children need a lot of understanding and confidence boosting at very opportunity. My 5 yr old son is dyspraxic and I know how you feel. it is important to gain a deep insight into what dyspraxia is and to raise awareness amongst others.
