teacher and child: lion... zebra... child: i saw that. hendrick: can the child settle down and concentrate? being able to focus attention on something that interests a youngster is a good indicator he's doing well because it means he's capable of learning. unless you can focus, you don't have time to take things in and to think about them. teacher: in the zoo? child: yeah. teacher: wow. what are those? rhinoceros? different teacher: chardonne, you need to use your words. that's not ok. that's not ok! hendrick: and finally, does the child have access to the full range of her feelings, and is she learning to deal with them in an age-appropriate way? this is one of the most important indicators of emotional health because it's only when the child is aware of all her feelings and can express them without harming herself or others that she is truly a whole child. child: no. no! you got to share. you got to share. teacher: you have to share. he's going to mess up my horsy! hendrick: when children seem to have special difficulties, we need to re

every child ispecial. every child has needs. woman: change colors. but what do we do when we're faced with the challenge of working with children who because of physical or emotional or developmental problems require much more specialized, individualized attention than the other children in our care? woman: there you go. go for it. turn. hello. i'm joanne hendrick, the author of the whole child and your guide to this video series. in this program, we're going to explore a number of ways we can effectively work with children with special and exceptiol needs. we'll observe children in a variety of programs: head start, family day-care homes, university schools, and private childcare centers. we'll also talk with teachers who will share their personal experiences working with children who have special needs. [computer beeps] woman: yes. press again. press again, des. keep pressing. keep pressing. [computer makes tone] oh, look, des, look! pretty. hendrick: how do we begin to help that child? what are our responsibilities, obligations, and expectations?

when that child is in imminent risk. what is "imminent risk"? so that our audience understands what we're talking about. child welfare, cps workers, child protective service workers have ways that they look at the risk factors in a family. imminent risk is: this is something that is critical and the child must be removed from that family right now in order to keep that child safe. so there's danger to their life? there's danger to their physical life, to their safety. meaning that the risk of who else is in the household can't be controlled so that there might be something going on that they need to say, right now, we need to make this removal. but there are about 200,000-a little more than 200,000 children removed each year. whereas, there are about 3 million children that are investigated for abuse and neglect. and within those 200,000, are there cases where they are removed where the parents are having either a mental or substance use disorder? the vast majority. ivette, may i go back and kind of piggyback on what nan

right now it almost sits at 5,000 people waiting for child -- affordable child care slots. and the working families going to school, working very hard, if they didn't get this child care, specifically at our site, we would lose about 30 families and children. so, if they don't have subsidized child care, they might not be able to work, not go to school, not be productive citizens of san francisco. so, i urge you seriously to consider this for this year and in future years to help the families that we serve on a daily basis in san francisco because it makes a difference. and this city is taking leadership if you do support this. i appreciate the time and effort and hope you support this wholeheartedly. thank you. >> thank you very much. next speaker, please. >>> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is monica walters. i'm the executive director at wu yee children serve is he and we serve about 250 children in three centers in chinatown, one in the tenderloin, and one in vis valley. serving children, coming from predominantly very low-income families. and i just want to echo w

every child can learn.f we believe that and operate from that mindset we will be successful in educating every single chide. yesterday i had the high honor of going to a place of hope hall in rochester. this is a school, a private school, that takes kids who traditional system might describe as having special needs. but, they go to hope hall, which is a wonderful setting, they love life skills, how to work with their hands, how to do things, and they love learning. they go where they may be uncomfortable or environments that don't work for them and they go to a place where they're carried for and loved and get the individual attention they need. when i was there, the woman who runs that school, sister diana told a story about a child who came to that school, and the paperwork said that child would never be able to speak, that that child was mute. and that child did speak yesterday, he gave an address to a hundred people and he's getting straight a's. i don't understand why we as a country cannot provide mor

get some help for your child because a mother who herself is damaged and injured cannot help her child. very good. and, dr. clark, you were talking about different types of scenarios in terms of how parents need to cope with different types of trauma that their children may have experienced. what other types of actions should parents be taking in a different scenario? well the most important thing, as dr. harris pointed out, you listen but you should also believe your child unless the evidence is overwhelmingly to the contrary, which means, as dr. harris points out, you are taking it outside to explore, to get vindication. so, if it's bullying you are talking to the school. you're talking to the teacher. if it's sexual assault, you're bringing in the appropriate authorities to address that. if it's a family member, you are not keeping it a secret because you're afraid of embarrassing the family. the issue is that the child will suffer long-term consequences, and you too will suffer consequences because you are either, you're a victim yourself based on the past or you're sitting there h

child. >> sheriff wally olson of dale county referring to the individual hostage taker, jimmy lee dykes said, and i'm quoting the sheriff, he feels like he has a story that's important to him. although it's very complex, we're trying to make a safe environment. what kind of story would an individual have that would prompt them to take a 5-year-old child hostage having killed the bus driver of a school vehicle? >> well, i think there may have been a number of things going on with mr.d ykes. number one, we're told by friends and neighbors that he didn't like government for whatever his reason. number two, that he had conflicts with his neighbors. so all of these scenarios that were going on, he may have felt, for example, martin, that he was the victim, that he was being oppressed. that, in fact, even with the shooting of the bus driver, and realize i only say this from a negotiator's perspective to try to minimize what he did in his own mind, the negotiator could build a scenario to the effec

to child. a few of them are going to become great athletes-- most won't. but many will benefit from what we can identify as optimal patterns of exercise during childhood. ifood nutrition and exercise become a habit, there's a better chance children will grow into healthier adults. but scheduling too much activity isn't a good idea, either. kerry syed: i think that children, in general, are very little impressionable people. and as we go through childhood, you know, our parents make us do certain things-- "you need to be in soccer. you need to be in ballet. you need to do this," but they never think about, "does my child like this?" they think, "i just want you to be active." jennie trotter: most parents are working and then you have after school or then you have other obligations that the kids have, so what we're trying to let parents know, first of all, is to be able to say no. first of all understanding that your kids' agenda and schedule that you may have to say, "that's too much." we stress
