Hello and thank you for writing to JustAsk!

Here is an article from a United States center for learning disabilities which may help to explain what your son may be experiencing.

This is not to say that your son has learning disabilities, as only local evaluators would be able to determine this for you. I am unfamiliar with school regulations in South Africa, so please consult with your local school.

Hope this helps: http://www.ncld.org/ld-basics/ld-aamp-language/writing/dysgraphia
