It is a common hope of parents that their children will make friends at school, & will see themselves as valued & contributing members of their school community. Parents of children with disability can worry these things won't come easily for their family member.

This is an opportunity for parents to learn that friendship is indeed possible & important for all children, and that there are ways to create opportunities for friendships to develop.
