Mel Levine once again uses stories and strategies to describe why "lazy" may be a difficulty with output production. In The Myth of Laziness, Levine isolates another group of kids--so-called "lazy" children who aren’t working up to their potential in school. He explores the causes of their low performance, scoffing at the perception that any child is lazy, stating that "everybody yearns to be productive." These children, according to Levine, are simply experiencing "output failure" due to different neuro-developmental weaknesses. 2003. Paperback, 270 pages.
