It is a hard pill to swallow but children with developmental disorders are often not recognized in society. Yes, I said it! Special education is a unique educational program for students who have mental, physical, and emotional challenges. These children require special and unique teaching approaches. Sometimes, these approaches take place outside a regular classroom setting. Special-needs children refer to children who have some sensory challenges. Some of these challenges are common to children with Autism spectrum disorders, Down syndrome, Cerebral palsy, hearing impairments, developmental delay, intellectual disability, emotional disturbance, visual impairment, and much more. It’s unfair that children are placed in regular classrooms and are forced to learn the way neurotypical children are. My brother once attended a school for neurotypical children. This was a time when we weren’t sure about his diagnosis. I could tell that it was hard for him. He wouldn't participate
