What a great story! I imagine it would be hard for a perfectionist like Snape to have a child with a disability, but I'm glad he came around.

Thanks. This is defently my favorte story ive done to date, just narrowly beating our Ron's War.

When workign with the special students, part of the problems that the parents had was that they were in denile, over compensating (doing *everything* for the child) or doing the 'tough love' and doing nothign for the child. The mothers also tended to get to a 'its all my falt, I did something to them' stange. It takes a long time, if ever, to coem to grips with a child having a sersious learning need.

Yes, you conveyed that very well. And it took Severus seeing another child with a problem, to be able to accept his own son.

I just happened to be over lookign my stories and saw I didn;t respond to your review! (bad Myene, not cookie!)

Thank you for your review! I see you in stories all over the place (can;t forget that icon) so its nice seeing the 'big' reviewers respond to a story.

Part of the reason I wrote snape as having such a hard time was that he lives in his mind, eh is a 'hard core' acadmic. So few people with mild leraning disabilties, let alone one like DS, ever are. I can count on one hand that number of peopel that told me that college would be a good idea *despite* of the learning disabilties. I've had scores of people, sadly enough quite a few teachers, telling me that I shouldn't bother because I had learnign disabilties.

Thanks again for the review, check otu the rest of my fanfic tag if ya wnat, I'll be updateign again soem time after mid may.

It's nice to hear myself described as a "big reviewer." I write so little Snupin, nor do I beta - though I used to do that a lot in the SW fandom. I'm glad I'm able to contribute through reviews.
