“…Sadly, later interactions with peers do little, if anything, to ameliorate the children's social abilities. Reports by both parents and teachers have indicated that disabled children engaged primarily in solitary activities and tended to be socially isolated (Hewett, 1970;Minde, Hackett, Killou & Silver, 1972;Long & Moore, 1979). Tendencies to avoid the disabled have been documented in a series of studies by Richardson and his associates investigating attitudes towards the disabled (see Richardson, 1976) and also by direct observational studies of a variety of disabled populations (see review by Guralnick, 1986).…”

Sixty-four Greek cerebral-palsied children, aged 2-13, and their siblings were observed in a semi-structured play situation at home. Compared to matched control dyads, disabled children were passive and lacking in assertiveness, while their siblings were correspondingly more directive. Interaction in disabled dyads was predominantly hierarchical in nature with disabled children assuming the role of the younger child regardless of age or birth order. Control dyads were more egalitarian, with members taking turns in initiating the interaction. Maternal intervention was higher in disabled dyads, particularly among younger groups where social skills were poorly developed.

“…They look on the family-child relationship as a static one, not taking into consideration that the child will grow, attitudes of the family will change, and stresses will ebb and flow with time. They also fail to take into account community and other outside influences and do not use objective methods in gathering data (Minde, Hackett, Killou, & Silver, 1972).…”

“…This is based on the "problem of marginality." This theory has to do with the dual identity that a physically disabled person has within him-or herself-that is, that he or she is both normal (in some aspects such as smiling) and abnormal (such as walking) and that this causes conflicts, both internal and external, because society relates to either one or the other not both (Minde et al, 1972).…”

“…Toward the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s authors such as Anderson (1972, cited in Pilling 1973, Minde (1978;Minde et al, 1972), and Rutter (1967Rutter ( , 1977 began to study groups of physically handicapped children, the vast majority of whom had cerebral palsy, rather than doing case studies. They used objective methods of data collecting, including direct observation, interviews and questionnaires for teachers, parents, and subjects, and at least one investigator (Minde) has been engaged in a prospective longitudinal study.…”

Children with cerebral palsy and their families encounter numerous problems, needs, and concerns that are within the realm of nursing care. This study documents needs perceived by parents as indicated on a questionnaire. Data collection took place in the waiting area of an outpatient cerebral palsy clinic in a large pediatric referral hospital. Questionnaires were administered to a convenience sample of 203 parents over a 6-month period. Parents responded to the statement, "It would help me/my child to talk with a nurse about this." Parents selected items from a list of 3 1 possible topics and identified topics of concern to themselves or to their child. As many as 78 percent of parents identified one or more topics for themselves to discuss with a nurse, but only 34 percent of parents identified one or more topics for their child to discuss. A limitation of the study was that no data were collected documenting mental retardation or speech disorders, which could have accounted for the fewer number of topics identified for the child.The primary benefits of the study are two-fold: (1) Needs perceived by parents for themselves and their children were identified and prioritized.(2) Variables that are significantly related to number of needs were identified.
