Careness In Relationships
with another who have the same taste as one does, but it’s different for children that are gifted. People may seem that they might be the outliers because it would seem difficult for a normal person communicating with a disable person. They won’t be able to hit it off as two normal people that would understand that person quickly and both persons can engage in the conversations. All of this leads to lack of careness and lack of communication. If a child with a disability doesn’t get the appropriate attention they needs, they tend to be isolated and leads to disaster. In the article “‘We’re just that sort of family’” “ Intergenerational Relationship in Families including children with disabilities” by Brigit Mirfin, Anne Bray, and Marilyn Watson

    A child with learning problems may be many developmental years behind their peers; this will have a big impact on what they can do in all areas of development including physical skills, social skills and intellectual skills. They may find it especially hard to interact with children of the same age or stay interested in conversation. They may also need to have one-to-one lessons at school to help educate them as they may not be at the same cognitive stage as peers. This may leave them feeling left out, however, some children may have a learning disability that is severe enough for them not to realise they are different.…

    Autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and Down syndrome are only a few names listed, but are some of the most commonly found disabilities in many children and teenagers. These individuals are surely impacted greatly from these disabilities, but they are otherwise just as equal as everyone else. However, if one isn’t treated with the equality they deserve, how does that impact the rest of their life? In Cammie McGovern’s Say What You Will, Matthew and Amy are new friends aspiring to have a memorable high school end, while also dealing with the obstacles and judgement that come with having their own disabilities, like obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and cerebral palsy. Throughout the novel, McGovern demonstrates that because…

    Families that have a handicapped must treat that person with the utmost respect. One part of respecting a person is to have appropriate expectations for them. “I wanted a brother. But Mama, crying, told me that even if William Armstrong lived, he would never do these things with me. He might not, she sobbed, even be ‘all there’” (90). Although Doodle was born with disabilities, he has two eyes, two legs, two ears and he is just like everyone else. Doodle was born with a health condition that did make him different from other kids his own age, but that does not mean he is not allowed to live his life as others live theirs. From birth Doodle was told he would not be able to do the things that others have because he has a heart condition. Yet, Doodle is still a person and no matter what happens in life he should be treated the way others want to be treated. All Doodle wants to do is live life to the fullest and that is how it shall be. Families with handicapped members have to set forward for all of the positive outcomes of life, other than have a bunch of negatives. If you lead a handicapped with only negative expectations, as like Doodle, he will never have the full amount of respect for you, as well as your other family members.…

    Generally when we talk of individuals with disabilities, the very core or center of concern always falls on individuals with developmentally disorders, physically handicapped, emotionally disorders. We tend to miss out the individuals who are born as “gifted”. Well for us, as the title says (gifted), being born gifted is more of a blessing than the other way around. But the truth of the matter is, it is not as easy as it may seem to be. If individuals with different kinds of disorders have special needs, so do gifted individuals. It may just be in a different manner, in a dissimilar kind and in a more diverse situation but there still is a special need and this is also need to be properly addressed in the same manner as with the other disabilities.…

    One Child Book Report

    This book greatly affected the way I understand families and/or children with disabilities. The greatest thing I learned is that intelligence or giftedness can be a challenging exceptionality. Through additional research, I found that giftedness can often be misdiagnosed as ADHD or LD. In some cases, children who are gifted can also suffer from specific learning disabilities, and need accommodations on both sides. Sheila was certainly an exceptional child because she had a very high reading and math ability despite being very young and disadvantaged. She lived with her father who was a migrant worker, who despite loving her, could not help her academically. Emotional circumstances have hindered Sheila’s development. Her mother left her a few years earlier, and the belief that she was unworthy prompted her to act out in school settings. She was so afraid of failure that she spent weeks ripping up her math…

    No parent expects to have a child with a disability. Parents nearly always act strongly to the birth of a disabled child. It is important to consider their responses, because they happen to every parent, regardless of their educational, social or socioeconomic background. ¡§Most parents who must cope with a child of a disability face the major crisis of ¡§symbolic death¡¨ of the child who was to be. When their child is first diagnosed as having a serious disability, most parents feel shock, and then denial, guilt, anger and sadness before they finally adjust¡¨ (Peterson, 1987).…

    The book stated the need for children with disabilities to gain social competence. It also stated that this skill will help children with disabilities to gain acceptance from their peers which will further allow them to develop friendships. This concept to me is not stated correctly, in that I find it a little insulting. I think society need to shift their focus from doing whatever it take to “fix” people with disabilities to the focus of also teaching typical children without disabilities to learn to accept and socialize with other children unlike themselves. I truly believe that as a society we can benefit from interacting with people who are different from us. The book also stated the important of the problem I mentioned above , which is the integration of children with or without disabilities to engage in the classroom together and to learn about the different disabilities. By so doing, I believe that society can slowly but surely change all the ugly perceptions about children with disabilities and kill all the misconceptions and stereotypes. As a future Occupation therapist, I can help advocate on this matter by educating my clients, running a group about the topic or make brochures to bring attention to the…

    We all know that there’s a difference between special children and normal children but both have similarities. For instance, they both have talents and perspective towards life. They can play and have fun in their own. Both need attention and discipline from their parents to avoid any misconception while they are growing and guide them from learning. Special children need more attention and extra help to develop their social skills. Parents must be extra careful with their special children because they have special needs to be attended. Also, they need to be understood by their family and everyone around them to gain more confidence about themselves and can interact well. On the other hand, normal children can develop their social skills on their own and can gain friends. They can play with another child and gradually learning to share and take turns. They can join in groups and enjoy group experiences. Their needs are easily observe and directly accommodated but still need guidance. These children are part of the society, whether they have disabilities or just normal ones and they must be respected. Every one of us has rights in the society we are in and that includes them. They have the right to choose whoever they want to become and whatever they want to do but with a proper given guidance and attention. The happiness and joy they brought will never be unmatchable especially to their parents.…
