1. Perils of Segregated Special Education Schools
Segregated special education school buildings are sometimes incorrectly described as safe or useful places for students with developmental disabilities that benefit families and communities, when in fact they were places of limited opportunity, prejudice, and danger.
2. Helicopter Parenting and Childhood Disability
3. Self-Contained Classrooms, Institutional Buildings
The history of self-contained classrooms, and institutional buildings in school district education programs for students aged 3 to 21, can help us understand how inclusion benefits children with disabilities through their daily environment as well as enhancing educational and social opportunities.
4. Crawling, Walking, and Down Syndrome
Young children with Down syndrome may experience delays in learning to crawl and walk, and may have unique ways to manage motor planning and movements.
5. Linear Learning for Children with Down Syndrome
For half a century or more, it has been obvious that children with Down syndrome have greater success and opportunities in mainstream classrooms and community programs. This is due in part to the benefits of non-linear learning and a wider array of opportunities to progress in skills and subjects.
6. Empathy and Inclusion - Childhood Disabilities
It can be disheartening to moms of students with Down syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, Autism, Type 1 Diabetes, and other disabililities, developmental delays, or chronic health conditions, when neighbors show more compassion about pets and animals than for their children's classmates.
7. Down Syndrome and Autism Dual Diagnosis
Families whose children with Down syndrome have autism or an autism spectrum disorder can find support and information online for this dual diagnosis
8. Abusive Relationships, Education and Schools
9. Bras for Daughters with Disabilities
Like their mainstream peers, girls and teens with disabilities benefit from professional bra-fitting at a department store or specialty shop to find appropriate, well-fitted bras with features to accommodate physical challenges, while aesthetically pleasing the young woman who wants or needs one.
10. Caring for a Baby or Child with a Stoma
A stoma may be required to provide a baby or child an alternate route to eliminate waste. Premature babies with Necrotizing Enterocolitis, and preemies or newborns with Down syndrome may have Hirschsprung’s disease. Congenital anomalies, disease, obstructions or atresia may make stomas necessary.
