I have a kid who is #gifted, but has #dysgraphia and #dyscalculia to the point of severe disability in an academic setting. He learns really well, he just can't express himself that way to speak of. I have taken to calling him academically #disabled instead of learning disabled, because it works better when I'm talking to him about him, and when I am advocating for him.

But because I don't have those same disabilities (our #neurodivergence overlaps in other ways but not those) I'm wondering how those of you with them feel about it. Does that differentiation make sense to you?
