DYSPRAXIA
Dyspraxia is an impairment or immaturity of the organisation
of movement.
Associated with this there may be problems of language,
perception and
thought.
Symptoms are evident from an early age. Youngsters are generally
irritable
from birth and may exhibit significant feeding problems.
They are slow to
achieve expected developmental milestones, often not sitting
independently
by the age of eight months. Many fail to go through the
crawling stages as
babies, preferring to 'bottom shuffle' and then walk.
