There is some evidence to suggest genetics play a part in developmental dyslexia (you are born with it). If a child has one dyslexic parent then a boy has a 50% chance of being dyslexic, a girl has a 25% chance. However, it sometimes skips the female children but they become carriers for their children. Check the web sites of the British Dyslexia Association for references and details.
