«Comprendiendo a tu hijo discapacitado» is the essay by Valerie Sinason, published by Ediciones Paidós in paperback (96 pages, in Spanish).
A disabled child is, above all, a child with their own hopes, fears and personality. Sinason explains how families, schools and hospitals can address their emotional needs: planning for the future, facing difficulties realistically and fostering adaptation and growth. She also asks what it feels like to be different.
