Many of these kids require accommodations for post-viral neurological symptoms and do not know it.
I know my kid was a *voracious* reader & writer until after multiple covid infections resulted in long covid symptoms/brain fog which made dealing with text almost impossible for the first year, and much harder, slower after some recovery -
