121 How to shift your child’s “severe” learning disability

by Vaish | Sep 1, 2023 | Podcasts

In this episode, we talk about what a severe learning disability actually is and how can you reduce it. There are other terms used for it like “low-functioning”, severely autistic, severe intellectual delay.

Very few of the labels actually go into the root cause of the issue.

In this issue, you will learn:

1. What a severe delay/ disability actually means
2. What you can do to reduce the severity
3. How to move ahead.
