My Hypothetical Family Situation

The hypothetical family I created isn’t something new.

Middle age couple has a child on the way that will be mentally challenged.  The things that I put the family will need are

·         Parents will need couples counselling to share feelings and a strategy to deal with stress from varies places.

·         Types of therapy for the child

·         Better understanding of insurance coverage

·         Finding a child care center with inclusive care , qualitied  special education teachers

·         Support group for parents  and helping present friends with understanding their child and new way of life

·         Mental Retardation Laws, Regulations & Policies

 

The parents  “to be “are in a city without other family members so they will depend on their  community of friends, church members  physician and educators.
