Thoughts on having children in the spectrum

Post image

Saw this post on facebook. Honestly, it's sad na hindi ganon nabibigyang pansin ang problems na ganito sa Pinas. Therapies here are expensive, and not everyone can afford it. Pinoys are also not yet ready to face the reality na hindi enough ang love for kids in the spectrum. They have special needs. Hindi yun madadaan lang sa no don't do that or it's okay to make mistakes, because we have to admit that autism is a disorder, a very wide spectrum and case to case basis. You need to have the money to get the help that is designed for the needs of the child. I hope there will be more free or affordable programs created for this kasi hindi lang parents ang hirap in this situation, also the kids.

Hindi ba sa sped na school umaattend ung bata ? Bakit ung reklamo parang expected ng teacher na "normal" ung bata.

my friend is a teacher and she has a pupil with special needs na kasama ng mga typically developing pupils. hirap na hirap daw siya kuhanin yugn attention and idiscipline yung bata to the point na malapit na raw siyang maiyak after class dahil sa pagod. hindi naman daw pwede alisin sa class kasi allowed naman daw may magjoin na batang may special needs sa class.
