Why is it important to understand special education as a "family affair?" What principles regarding families are important to consider?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer should acknowledge: families are systems - what impacts one family member affects all family members; families include any person who is directly involved in the child's life; intervention that includes families is more likely to have positive outcomes than intervention focused just on the child; family members should have choice and autonomy in decision making regarding their engagement in a child's interventions; professionals should be attentive to family priorities for goals and services, even if they differ from their professional opinion; a family's cultural background is important to consider and influences a family's response to their child's situation and suggested interventions; family strengths should be at the center of any intervention plan
