Working with a child who has cerebral palsy can be challenging and the most important tool you can utilize with any special needs child is patience. Children with cerebral palsy struggle to accomplish things that other children can easily do and, as a parent, this can be frustrating. A firm understanding of your child's condition is key to replacing this frustration with the patience and motivation. It's important to remember that every child is different. The best way to work with a child, especially one who suffers from cerebral palsy, it to keep organized and maintain a schedule. Not only will the child feel secure knowing his or her schedule, it will help you keep up with all of the therapy and doctor's visits entailed by cerebral palsy, in addition to the everyday needs of raising a family. When working with a child who has cerebral palsy, regardless of if you are helping with schoolwork or teaching social skills, remember to be repetitive with the lesson and to provide immediate feedback. By providing immediate feedback the child will learn what you expect, and by repeating the exercises you will be able to teach this expectation. No matter how frustrating the process may get, never give up on the child. Present information in as many different ways as possible, until you find what works best for each individual. Lessons are most quickly learned when presented in a variety of formats that appeal to all of the child's senses, so try and incorporate hands on activities when working with a child who has cerebral palsy. Taking care of special needs children can be exhausting, and no one can do it alone. Don't be afraid to reach out for help. Whether you join a support group, enlist the help of close friends or family, or consult resources online , remember that you are not alone. When working with a child who has cerebral palsy it is your job to keep the child motivated to learn and inspired to reach the goals you have set, so, regardless of how frustrating the situation may be, remember that a positive attitude will do children as much good as the lessons they are learning.
