    Sometimes referred to as ‘dyspraxia’ or ‘clumsiness’, this condition is more properly called Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD).
    Movement skills are a fundamental aspect of human behavior, enabling us to perform everyday tasks, to express ourselves and to maintain our health and well-being. However, some children lack the movement skills they need to cope with the everyday demands of home and school, despite normal intellectual, sensory and neurological development.
    Anna Barnett is a Professor in Psychology at Oxford Brookes researching perceptualmotor development, with a special interest in both DCD and handwriting. Her work focuses on the diagnosis and description of DCD, its impact on health and well-being and the development of tools to assist health and education professionals to identify and help children with movement and handwriting difficulties.

    My dad is a doctor and he says I have DCD. Here I thought that I was a wuss because I couldn’t ride a bike and it took me way longer than my other brothers. I also have auditory, olfactory oversensitivity. Someone touching me is really weird for me and I’ve never spoken about it till now because someone might think I’m a really horny teen. Which I’m not. I hate people touching me. Oh and it’s also really difficult for me to do maths too. I also have an extreme difficulty with balancing myself without holding onto the railing or the escalator belt and I always hate stairs because they make me dizzy

    I think my 6 year old daughter has this. She is driving me crazy with her clumsiness and lack of focus.
    If she is eating just one meal, the kitchen looks like a pig was slaughtered there and she needs to be changed into a new outfit. And I say has to be changed because she will end up talking to the hairbrush in the bathroom instead of taking off her clothes. I feel like I'm still taking care of a toddler.
    However she is incredibly kind and brave and imaginative and funny. I will try to be more patient after reading the comments from all of you who have dcd.

    Who does a parent contact if they believe their child may have DCD, to get the proper assessment? She is 3 and is in the assistive classes in preschool but no diagnosis, just speech and motor delays. She can't produce words almost at all but can clearly understand what is said.

      Sam, you must be an unsurpassed clairevoyant, to pose down a medical diagnose over a short youtube comment ...
      I know very well what I "have" , I was just explaining that the terminology 'dyspraxia' was unknown to me, some 10 years ago, so I invented my own terminology "coordination dyslexia" ... nothing more, nothing less ... lol
      The disorder types dyslexia, discalculia, dyspraxia... etc, are ALL extreme close to one another, and there are more often then not large crossovers between the sets of disorder symptoms. It's through the very long checklists in the symptoms, that a "main" label is glued on, with an individual, but an isolated "clear" this OR that, does not even exist....
      You can find much in depth information about that topic, on specialised medical websites.
