Are you prepared to support children with special needs?
When you first find out that your child is diagnosed with special needs, a series of roller coaster emotions and worries can be expected. Panic might set in. How will I cope with this? Am I prepared to support my child’s development?
Similarly for educators who are unequipped with the tools and knowledge, they might be unprepared when tasked to manage special needs students.
Read moreWhy doesn’t my child listen to me?
This is a common issue with children and not something out of the ordinary. Children have a short attention span and don’t always listen; but it can be more acute when dealing with children with special needs.
Getting a child to listen is not always the easiest thing to do in the world, but learning how to get a child to listen becomes especially important for children with special needs.
Children have a variety of reasons for not listening to their parents, guardian, or teachers.
Read moreLearn how to support children with special needs
Helping children with special needs can sometimes feel like something insurmountable, but there are ways that you can effectively help them.
Each child requires help in their own way, and in different areas; and some children need more help than others. Some children may need help learning how to communicate, while another may need to learn how to get along with their peer in class, or family members at home. Some children may need more time and resources dedicated to them.
Being able to help children with special needs means teaching them the tools and methods that will allow them to best learn, and be independent and successful in their day to day life and activities. This will give them a sense of accomplishment and boost their self-esteem and confidence.
You may feel tired, and frustrated; but so will they. Give them space to breath and play. Let them be kids, and encourage them. Also, learn how they communicate, and take some time to listen to them. Often, kids just want your attention and love; and that is as important as anything else you can help them with.

When is the right time to test for autism?
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can be diagnosed as early as 18 months but professionals will suggest parents monitor and wait until age 3. Parents will actually predict their child’s later autism spectrum disorder long before any professional diagnosis. According to a 2009 research (J Dev Behav Pediatr. 2009 Oct; 30(5): 367–375.),
