If a 2 year old child has not achieved a proper level of ambulation, no rehabilitator would diagnose dys-ambulation. The observed behaviour is considered a precious indicator of something more. The essential aspect is to understand the meaning of that unexpected behaviour within the process of childhood development whose one indicator is the body-mind system. Oddly enough this doesn’t happen if a child, by the age of 7/8 years has not developed writing and reading skills both with characters (dysgraphia, dyslexia) and numbers (dyscalculia). As argued by Oliver Sacks, an anomalous behaviour is the path to under-standing how a subject has solved the problems generated by a possible pathology that may be understood exactly by means of this symptomatic expression. In this article we discuss how the official and most widespread approach regarding specific learning disabilities (SLD), not only does not provide efficient help for children with an SLD diagnosis, but represents also a clear "perspective mistake" in regard to a rigorous scientific approach. Furthermore we indicate a method that is consistent with the premises of the sciences of complexity and allows a preventive, and often resolutive, intervention before entering primary school, between the fourth and fifth year of life
