| | Research seems to indicate that the severity of the handicap and the degree of dependency by the child on his family is the most important factor in his acceptance, than whether he has cerebral palsy or spina bifida. | | | The acceptance of a handicapped child into a family may be eased if parents have an opportunity to meet with other parents of children like their own. | | | Having a handicapped child born into a family and grow into adulthood is one of the most stressful experiences a family can endure. |

| | While many visually handicapped persons interviewed are satisfied with their wages, working conditions, opportunity to use their skills, and their conditions of employment, the majority consider that they had no opportunities for promotion. | | | Visually handicapped employees who are not satisfied with their present employment circumstances should communicate their feelings to their employers with a view to mitigating any grievance felt and discussing any potential ability which is not being fully utilised. | | | Acceptable questions include those related to the visually handicapped person's speed of work, how he would overcome the problems that may be caused by his handicap and other questions relevant to fulfilment of the tasks involved, but questions of a personal nature should be avoided. |

| | Lifeworlds of mentally handicapped children are explored in the form of "stories" based on my own experiences with these children, mainly because the form of story allows us to tell about particular events, particular experiences, and particular individuals in concrete situations. | | | This epistemological concreteness of story is methodologically appropriate for the study, since as pedagogical research the study seeks to understand each child as a unique individual in his or her particular situation. | | | These themes of contextuality of meaning and mutuality of understanding make all the more significant and responsible our place as teachers and parents in the lifeworlds of children. |
