This post is written by my son, The Boy, aged 9 for Dyspraxia Awareness Week 2020. I guarantee you won't see a better post on the Dyspraxia Dad blog.
Dyspraxia is quite tricky to live with but you’re stuck with it for the rest of your life. If you try harder and harder eventually you’ll succeed. Over the summer I learned to ride a bike with my bike riding teacher, Callum.

Dyspraxia makes me feel annoyed and sometimes I don’t even notice it’s there. At school I struggle with maths and I always come last at sports day but I really enjoy it because I get to move about. I get nervous sometimes about mistakes and things that are not real.
The good thing about having dyspraxia is you have a imagination. I’m very creative and I like films.
