Heard something interesting on either Doctor Phil or Oprah today while I was doing other things. There was a man that talked about children with disabilities and their behaviour, stating that it was the behaviour that is different to the disability and the behaviour needs to be addressed separately just like it has to be with a "normal child". He went on to say that this factor can greatly determine whether or not the child has good relationships or not with people and can make a big difference in family life. The behaviour of the special need child really has to be addressed, the same way as a normal child would be. You really have to bring it to the child's attention in the way that works better with that individual. Also he pointed out some of the many ways in which you can do this.
