Hi there
Edited to change the title cos I'm not getting much of a response!
First of all can I thank Paula for giving me permission to post on this forum - it is greatly appreciated.
My name is Vicki, I have taught children with Special Needs for 10 years and I'm totally passionate about supporting families. I'm delighted that I've recently had a book commissioned looking at the relationshsips of parents when their child has an additional need. The book is aimed at parents as a self-help guide. I know there is so little out there to help parents at the moment. The book will also hope to make professionals more aware of the stresses that couples face.
I want the book to be packed full of case studies, parents talking about their experiences - good and bad. And how parenting a child with special needs has impacted on their lives. I want the book to give tips on how to cope.
I have produced a questionnaire that I really need parents to fill in to help me to make this book a reality. This includes a consent form and names can be changed
to protect identities, so nobody need ever know it is you.
If anybody out there would be kind enough to fill this in I would be thrilled and it will go a long way to helping other parents. My email is
vahill@hotmail.co.uk I hope to hear from you
