As you go on to note, Tom, these self-reports are very unreliable -  
British work indicates almost no correlation between self-report and objective  
assessment! 
 
What I want to challenge, though, is the notion that we know that 20% of  
children have an LD and that they will grow up illiterate. We must be more  
careful than this, both ideas are highly controversial. I, for one, believe  
neither!
