Become parent advocates for your child. If you have a special child, then all the more that you be sensitive of his needs. A special child has special needs. They need more understanding more than any member of the family. Not that you will forsake other members of the family just because of him but all the members of the family must understand that he has special needs.
It is either they have learning disabilities like dyslexia cases, have down syndrome and other special conditions or have ailments. These children deserve the respect and care they so deserve. People should not look at them as any less of a child.
They may lack certain abilities that are common to a normal child, this does not mean that they should be treated any less than normal. They have feelings too. They should not be looked down, ostracized and cast out from groups. Mothers and fathers should educate their children about special kids.
Educating these kids about the special condition of others start with the fathers and mothers of these children. If you taught your child to be condescending about these kids, people could not expect compassion for kids towards other kids with special needs. Teaching these kids about good values and treating other people with respect lies in the hands of adults.
You do not want to plant animosity among members of the family. It is common for children to feel jealous over their other siblings. But if they have a clear understanding of the situation, the situation can be avoided. They understood why the other needs to be taken care of in a special way.
Most of the organizations nowadays are utilizing the power of the internet to promote their advocacy. The website of the organization really helps in spreading the word about their advocacy. Look for one or some in your area. Search them through the internet. Use the internet tools available.
There is a big possibility that there are organizations in your area. You may also approach the local municipality for information about these organizations. Associations like this also network with the local municipality for purposes of growing also their members. These organizations and associations also keep in touch with the local government for support.
Rearing a child with special needs is not a walk in the park. No, this is not an easy task. In fact, this is very challenging on the part of the family because they will have to deal with society that is not so accepting about children with disabilities. With the way people look at others, it is not only the child who will be affected but also those who care for him a lot. When you go out, people can give you a judging look and that is not nice.
It can affect the entire family. Sometimes the family cannot help it to feel bad about the whole situation. It is good to get support from other parent advocates as well. You can meet other people who share the same sentiment as yours. You can also learn from them. They can teach you how to deal with condescending glances from people and other stuff.
