Walking on a Tightrope: Parents Shouldn't Have to Walk It Alone.
Griffel, Gail
Young Children, v46 n3 p40-42 Mar 1991
Maintains that parents of a handicapped child, for example, a child with cerebral palsy, are "walking a tightrope." Successful intervention with the disabled child in the classroom is possible only when there is strong teacher-parent communication. This position is illustrated by an account of a parent's personal experience. (BB)
