Teaching Activities for Families » Special Needs - The Elliott Family Story
The Elliott Family goals, as they see them:
The Elliott family feels they are unable to solve their biggest problem--the challenging behavior of Mary's 18 year-old son. They want health services and a safe environment for themselves and their youngest children who have severe language impairments. Mary and Rick have strong feelings about raising their children, as they were raised in Appalachia. They feel that professionals do not understand their "ways". They would like to feel accepted and would be eager to accept help on that basis.
