Describe how educators can form strong partnerships with families of children with emotional and behavior disorders.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers should describe how important it is to diligently strive to form strong partnerships using a collaborative focus, and the value of parent education and support groups. Schools can offer assistance to parents by teaching them strategies that might help them to address their children's behavior at home. Parent education also can address topics such as how to help their children with homework, how school services for their children are structured, how to access community resources, and how to advocate for their children. In support groups, parents share information about local resources and services, trade ideas for addressing specific problems, and obtain the reassurance of knowing that they are not alone in dealing with day-to-day challenges.
