Is dyslexia genetic?

There is likely to be significant involvement of genetic factors in predisposing towards dyslexia; the trait is "complex" at the genetic level because it does not display a classical Mendelian inheritance pattern which can be attributed to a single locus. <cough>

I love it when you get technical.

What are the technicalities of getting you out of those genes?

Umm, I sorta stole the technical part, but the genes are mine … technically.



Hi, Lil E, I'm not sure I've told you, but I certainly do enjoy keeping up with a "twist" of you.

Is dyslexia genetic?

Per the International Dyslexia Association, the answer to your question is:

"The causes for dyslexia are neurobiological and genetic. Individuals inherit the genetic links for dyslexia. Chances are that one of the child's parents, grandparents, aunts, or uncles is dyslexic."


I recommend that site to anyone else who has a dyslexic child. I also recommend this one.

God bless Mel Levine.

My sister is dyslexic, bless her heart and here is one of our favourite jokes (which I know I've shared before)

Did you hear about the dyslexic devil worshipper?

He sold his soul to Santa.

Did you hear about the agnostic insomniac dyslexic?

He stayed up all night wondering if there was a dog.
