Abstract
School problems (particularly those that involve difficulties in learning) are among the most common reasons that parents bring their child to a pediatric neurologist. I have learned many important lessons from these children. One of the most important is that the underlying reason for the difficulty often cannot be anticipated from the presenting signs or symptoms, i.e., from the “chief complaint.”
