Hi, My daughter is is 1'st standard. She is brilliant. However her teacher recently suggested that we do a learning disability test for her as she is having difficulty writing. She can memorize the answers and is very good in orals though. She writes a few letters in reverse symmetry. Please suggest which test should we go for and where. Also, I am married to my first cousin. Please suggest the test we need to conduct to ascertain any genetic disorders and where can we do it. We don't notice any abnormality. She frequently plucks her eyelids. She is just 6. Otherwise she is a very normal child. She is addicted to cartoons. We are very worried for her. Please help. Thanks.
