When parents disagree on how to discuss learning differences with their child

My spouse and I are trying to figure out how to talk to our kid about their learning differences without projecting our own childhood trauma from being undiagnosed, but we keep having completely different approaches and getting stuck in arguments about what protection versus honesty looks like. We both want what's best for them but we can't seem to get on the same page about what that actually means.
