Research that Benefits Children and Families
Children and families are very important to me I go out my way sometimes to help families that I know need help. Through out my schooling I have gain information about children and families that I did know that happens. I know a family that was having problem with her child that was not normal the child start having difficulty in school or with neighbors. I ask the parents was the child tested at the school for an IEPs which stand for Individualized Education Program that helps children that are have difficulties and learning or functioning at school or at home. I have work to help this parents with the situation of her child and gave her resources that would also help her and her child. The parent did listen to me had her child tested and he was put in the IEP program that will help him function at school. Now this child is doing better at school in at home he is having therapy every other Friday with the therapist. Mother and the therapist have work together to come up with strategy for the child that would help him. There are some errors that he still needs work on and I am helping the parents now to help come up with strategy that will help the child to feel love, and know that he is somebody and he can do better at school and home. This child is very smart can read at the age of 6 he does like to help around the house but the parents does not have the patient or the time to let the child do around the house. So when I go visit I would let the child help around the house, read a story to me or whatever he wants to do I will do with him.

Sheila, this is a great example of how parents need our help in finding resources that may address their children's needs, like this type of assessments provided in schools. Definitely our guidance and support make a great difference in their lives.
