I showed my mom dyscalculia
She said I might have it
If I do it explains so much
I've been bad at math since 3rd grade. My mom blamed it on my ex-bff because she always struggled on math, so whenever the teachers were like "Yay you passed and got an A-!" I would feel bad for her, and that i just didn't like math because [her side of the family] were all good at math. But it was mutiplicaton that confused me so much. I've never been able to grasp the mutplication table/divison, nor additon/subtraction, i still have to count with my fingers for easy equations like 3+8, or 7x4, as if i'm a second/third/fourth grader.
I can't tell time on a Analog clock, and wasn't able to tell the time on a digital clock until i was 8. Analog clocks are the hardest to read, then 24 hour clocks (digital or Analog), then 12 hour clocks (esp. anlog).
My homeschooling program has a "recovery mode" Which is like, if you struggle on a topic it makes you watch a buntcha videos to break it down, and i went into 'recovery mode" at least twice for each unit/lesson.
