Special needs children, families: A Much neglected concept.,
By
This review is from: Ordinary Families, Special Children: Systems Approach to Childhood Disability, A: Second Edition (Paperback)
I have been in a graduate counseling program for three years and I am amazed that the topic of families w/exceptional children receives no consideration.This book fills a huge void in our field. The presence of a special needs child in a family has a huge impact on the (a)overall functioning of the system, and (b)the individuals, and the subsystems. These authors utilize a robust body of empirical research along w/good ole' fashioned wisdom and common sense from families, as well as their own to offer the practioner a guide for dealing with this population. In reading this book you'll have a sense of what a family, and its individual members go through when there is a child w/exceptional needs. A vastly under-explored, discussed topic brought alive by two very wise and caring professionals. |
