Fatbus, I thought that's what I said? While it has improved, it is still not as easy to get the same standards as one might be used to 'back home'. I know this for a fact as a good friend of mine is working with kids with special needs, she told me this herself. That yes, it's available but it might not be so feasible for families whose cover/circumstances won't provide any assistance- that's all I was trying to say. Didn't mean to imply it's not up to standard- merely that what is considered 'normal' or 'usual' here can be a lot different to one's home country. And the attitudes of some people here can be undeniably cruel/rude to those kids- it's only ignorance and not knowing better. Definitely worth looking into, especially in a household where one parent will be absent a good part of the time. At least Joselu is asking the questions now, not later on.
