Synopsis by Elizabeth Smith

Parents raising children with special physical, mental, or emotional problems generally need all of the constructive expert and practical advice they can find. This video provides an overview of the types of programs and care that parents can seek out, especially for their youngest children. Topics covered include obtaining accurate diagnoses of children's medical conditions, maintaining a normal family life while caring for a special needs child, and helpful support programs available in many communities. Actual parents of disabled children discuss how they handle some of the special problems that arise on a regular basis.
