FAMILY AND EARLY TREATMENT OF CHILDREN WITH PSYCHICAL DIFFICULTIES IN THEIR DEVELOPMENT
Journal Title: Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation - Year 1997, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
The subject of this paper is the research of family conditions ( financial, social, emotional, socio-cultural and educational ) and the relations and reactions of parents and other members of the family; their influence on the treatment of children with developmental difficulties. The research included 100 families with mentally retarded children on the territory of Skopje. The basic hypothesis is: the successfulness of the early treatment of the child with psycho-physical difficulties in their development depends on the socio-economical, educational status of parents especially the relation between the parents and their mentally retarded child. In the frame of the basic hypothesis more subordinate hypothesis have been examined. The results of the research have shown: a great number of the examined families are at low socio-economical and educational status. The unadvantageous socio-economical and educational negatively influences and backwards the early treatment of the child with difficulties. The relation towards the child varies-it goes from complete acceptance to complete neglecting of the mentally retarded child.
