Be in control you are the parent

Here are some key points for parents with special needs children

• Be patient
• Treat your child like any other child without a disability
  
• Don't underestimate/you are in control!
  
• Let your child be independent on certain task that you know he/she is capable of doing
• keep practicing with them on fine motor skills ex. zipping coat, coloring, buttoning jacket etc
• Take your child out into the community(movies, malls, grocery store, and the library) this is a great way to help your child enhance his social skills.
  
• Discipline is very important even though your child has a disability they should know right from wrong.
