Reading through the posts on this forum, I would guess about 50% of members.

Has anyone ever wondered why dyslexia is such a hard word to spell? Seems a bit unfair.

A lot of career advise is to "get a job with your hands", so I thought there might be a few.

A bit like trying to say "stutter".

Its greek : hard/difficult reading.

It's not.

I think the best education comes from parents. Seems if you have a good upbringing you're much better able to tackle the difficult problems life throws.

Seeing as my mum is a bit neurotic and my dad is an absent father it's difficult to know how much further ahead I'd be if I got the full package.

I'm not blaming them though, but I do sometimes find life lessons repeating themselves, rather annoyingly, as if I'm still learning stuff I should have learnt at a young age.
I could have done with some proper guidance earlier on, especially from my dad. Can't choose your family unfortunately, I guess he felt the same.

Yes - It was my dad that made me think twice about becoming a chef
