What you can do…

If you know a glass child, there are some things that you can do to help make a difference in their lives. One issue that glass children face, is a lack of recognition. An easy way to help a glass child, is to recognize their accomplishments .

Glass children get fewer opportunities to spend time with their parents, so if you have a glass child, make sure to let them have some family time. They need to experience family time away from their special needs sibling, just as any normal family would.

Part of being a glass child, is that nobody expects one to need more attention. That is why one of the best ways to help is to spread awareness. Some parents with special needs children don’t even realize they need to spend more time on their other children. It is good to make others aware of the potential situation.
