are there any creative writers on here with dyscalculia? I’m writing a character with it and I want to make sure she’s portrayed accurately. she’s 12-13 years old, so if anyone would be willing to help me out, I would be more than willing to listen!
also, the character is part Indian (specifically, her mom is a first-generation American whose parents are from Delhi) so if anyone has any experience with that as well, I would definitely be open to advice and help as I write, given that I don’t know much about that yet either. Her dad is white, particularly Italian, Scottish, and Welsh.
For both I am looking for people with actual lived experience as I just want to make sure that she’s representative of a real-life seventh grade girl :)
