General Child Education: Handicaps are the direct responsibility of a specialist in the area of the difficulty, but the guidance counselor is often a key person in helping the child make a general child education adjustment to school. See also EDUCATION—8. The Education of Exceptional Children.
The parents' own education and their attitude toward schooling, their occupational and socioeconomic status, their expectations and ambitions for the child, the degree of intellectual stimulation in the home and neighborhood, the pressure of home duties and remunerative work, all are conditions that influence learning. In general child education, a combination of favorable factors in the child's home environment are associated with school achievement. |
