Nonverbal neurodevelopmental dysfunctions.
Although perhaps not as well-studied or well-known as other learning disorders, the possible academic and social sequelae of math, writing, motor, or visuospatial dysfunction, as well as difficulties with nonverbal processing and understanding, are readily identifiable and worthy of identification. While pediatricians should not feel compelled to attempt to identify all of the variables of these difficulties, an understanding of them will allow pediatricians to maintain their role as an advocate for patients and families and to feel comfortable communicating with others who are equally dedicated to children.
