You both are channeling the same thoughts we are. Her brother has dyslexia and a few other visual processing challenges and was tested and diagnosed. We went through a lot of special tutoring to help him. Our daughter hasn't shown any of the same signs as him, but my wife and I were talking today about getting her tested, since we've tried just about every other avenue.
Since this has been part of her "personality" for as long as either of us can remember, we've tried the counselor route 4 times, at different ages, with no underlying issues brought to light or real progress made. It's super frustrating to feel this defeated, so I can't even imagine what she's got to be dealing with, to make her this upset around school.
To the question about her money, it's saved from birthdays, holidays and the occasional odd chore here and there for neighbors or grandparents.
