The article focuses on debunking myths and misunderstandings of childhood dyslexia by identifying 4 common beliefs about the disorder, and then discussing how modern neuroscience has been able to disprove these beliefs. Dyslexia as a “phase” of childhood has been debunked by neuroscientific studies on adults who suffer from the disorder.
