Linguistic competence of every person consists of knowledge of grammar and lexicon.

Primarily, the book support described can be implemented in a family setting or a counselling setting as part of early care for families with children with disabilities. The authors of the paper describe the book as a medium between the adults (professional, parent) and the child with a disability. It is the latter that they see as instrumental in developing the child's overall personality, with an emphasis on gradually achieving as much independence as possible and improving quality of life.

Dual exceptionality can be a challenge for a child with ADHD because the diagnoses can be intertwined and affect each other. With adequate diagnosis, therapy, and the right approach, the dual exceptionality can be corrected and the child can be developed to his or her...
