Communities that meet with young children
For many parents of young children with an intellectual disability, it is difficult to look into the future, and so difficult to be at ease in a community with adults suffering from disabilities. They only have just enough strength to live from day to day with the small child. This is how communities with young children were created.
Very often whole families : father mother, brothers and sisters meet up and forge ties with other families who are experiencing the some things are they are. Adolescents make friends with the children and discover real trust and hope in life. Parents and friends forge new ties between each other, creating a new extended family and they find umpteen occasions to help each other, share their experiences, exchange advice, meet up of an afternoon, for a week end, for a holiday camp etc.
