I absolutely hate it when people say things like "she's not dyslexic, she's lazy." And trust me, I heard a lot of that as a kid. I had a mean southern grandma who was a big believer of "if you don't do well in school its because you're not trying hard enough." Grr, it's the same logic that caused some teachers to force left handed kids to write right handed. It's not WRONG, it's just DIFFERENT.
