Transition Plan

When a person we love is born with a medical condition or diagnosed with a medical condition. There so many question that arises like - What will happen to their future? What does this mean for their future? How are we going to help them? Well they cope in the real world? How do we deal with someone who is different form others? The term ‘disabled’ is mainly associated with people diagnosed with different kinds of physical and mental conditions. But the main question is that, Are we right in calling them disabled?

Transition services are designed with the goal of helping the student move from school to adult life. By starting to plan early, students will have enough time to explore interests and abilities, not just post-secondary education and training or employment but other aspects of adult life. The place of residence, access to transportation, a range of recreational opportunities, a network of relationships, and needed specialized supports and services are all connected to an acceptable quality of life (Flexer, Baer, Luft, and Simmons (2013).

“A Life Beyond Reason,” written by Chris Gabbard discusses how having a child with disabilities can change your life and outlook on what it means to be alive. The author’s son, August, lives with cerebral palsy, is legally blind, a spastic quadriplegia, is nonverbal and is cognitively disabled. This makes it impossible for August to care for himself. The author says that if you were to sit August on the floor and came back hours later, he would be in the same place. After describing his son’s disabilities, the author explains how August is just a part of his quirky family. Gabbard, then describes the many ways people view August. Some people may see him and think of stereotypes like Zippy the Pinhead or a child of God. The author says, “for

Disabled people are often stereotyped. A stereotype is an over simplified mental picture of a group or person. Disabled people face more barriers in life than most people. Society tends to look down on these individuals. Stop Making Degrading Assumptions About People With Disabilities discuss how people make a quick judgment. Some people with disabilities do have a wheelchair, a dog, hearing aids, or anything to help us. They are trying to be independent. As McLaughlin mentioned, one of the scenarios that make people stop and stare when they saw a student in a wheelchair rolls up a ramp through an automatic door and into a class. All of sudden he stands and walks to a seat. This reminds me of how people assumed my ability of lip reading.

Five myths/stereotypes that people with disabilities face are the following : People who are blind acquire a "sixth sense”, people with disabilities always need help, the lives of people with disabilities are totally different than the lives of people without disabilities, non-disabled people are obligated to "take care of" people with disabilities, and people with disabilities are more comfortable with "their own kind. These five stereotypes I have mentioned, I am guilty of. For some reason, I thought individuals who were blind had a six sense to compensate for not seeing. It makes sense now that all the rest of their senses is fully formed than the regular person. Secondly, I always thought that I should offer help to every disabled individual

A man with a cane and dark sunglasses is seen reaching for a door to open it, there is a need for the man on the other side to hold it open for him while he goes through, though he has arms. A child in a wheelchair has been given the accommodation to be seated in front of his class, though he is not blind. An employee with cerebral palsy is given the freedom to work less hours, but does not want to as he is fully capable of doing his job. The appearance of people with a physical disability was not a choice but granted a cause of mishap. For example, the blind man was not born blind but was involved in an accident that caused him to be disconnected from the world visually. This causes this group of people to be stereotyped as not being able to be independent, have access to education and employment, and ultimately being labeled as “handicapped”.

The basic requirements to start in the transition planning is for the student to be 16 years old and update the IEP manually. The student would be able to do five services which are employment, vocational training, further education, independent living, and community participation. These programs are promoted to aid the student with exaptational needs to be able to survive after school since they are fewer government programs, and housing to support these students. The involvement of parents is to help the students need after school and after the parent’s absence. The decision should be made by the parent, student, and adult services so they can aid the students to need and not have the parents worry. The decision is made then they should include

The project will hopefully be a comprehensive approach to address the challenges and opportunities that arise with moving between cultures. It would enable staff to recognise the experiences that children and adults encounter during transitions between schools so that they can help them adjust to their new school better. Any conflicts and confusion with regard to expectations of teachers, parents, students and administrators will therefore be addressed promptly. The Transition Experience Model (Appendix 2) developed by David Pollock could be used to incorporate transition support activities and academic and non-academic-based education into the school programme (Hayden & Thompson, 2000). The model would help augment students' ability to manage transitions positively and describes a process faced by students and adults whether it is the result of relocation, a change in job or the loss of a friend who has moved on (McKillop-Ostrom,

From the moment you find out you are expecting a baby, the main thing you want is a healthy baby. However, this isn’t always the case. Millions of children are born with disabilities yearly. Right from the beginning parents and their disabled children face many hurdles and struggles to obtain quality of life. Depending on the child’s disability, certain aspects of the world will be harder for them.

All the articles that are going to be presented in this pages are basically going to be talking about relationship issues that they face with their children. Not all articles have the same structure that they face with with their children, but have a similar difficulty facing them. Each and one article shares one thing in common, all families that have a child with a disability have a higher stress load than a normal parents with a child. Not all families have the same toil as others, which make every family discrete and unique. In the other hand, each family has a way of communicating

After reading the Chapter 14 from Marini & Stebnicki, mothers with disabilities do have a hard time when maintaining their parenting responsibilities. At times it can be the same way for mothers without a disability. It is a strain for mothers with a disability, because they are aware of the limit opportunities they have, but will not let their own children see their difficulties. I believe that mothers with a disability will not let their disability keep them from their duties of being a mother. It does not matter if their disability came before or after their children. Also, some mothers with a disability do not want their children to be taught, or obligated to take care of them. They want their children to live as children while going developing

The bays had played important role in shaping the Sydney city which has significant history of contribution to the development of the city. The bays are situated on Sydney harbour just two kilometres west from Sydney Central Business District. The bays precinct encompasses five and a half kilometres of waterfront; ninety five hectares of land mostly owned by the government and ninety four hectares of water ways. The idea behind creating future development plan for The Bay Precinct is to create a landmark for the city with spectacular waterfront destinations. And also to create interactive public space, promenades and commercial spaces that increases job opportunities in the city. The main idea about the transformation plan is to

There are simply no words that could truly express the feeling that you get when you finally see the baby that you have grown to love from inside the womb staring up at you. Overwhelmed, is a word I am sure many new mothers would say expresses all of their emotions into one. Becoming a parent is one of the most frightening, terrifying, paralyzing and yet most astounding, breath-taking, remarkable experiences any woman could be a part of. It is the hope of every parent that his or her child will grow to be healthy, strong, and flourish throughout their life time. Unfortunately this is not always the case, according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) “About 1 in 6 children in the United States had a developmental disability in 2006-2008, ranging from mild disabilities such as speech and language impairments to serious developmental disabilities, such as intellectual disabilities, cerebral palsy, and autism.”

In addition, in these to movies, they deliver the idea that people with disabilities are all viewed as inferior to non-disabled peers through others’ characters’
