I have, in the past, been used to define a child with exceptional talent. It has also been used to define children who deviate from what is normal . In education, exceptional children mean both gifted and disabled. Disability means that a person cannot do, or do easily, one or more things that other people can do. Something is important for us all to remember is that a disability is almost never total .
Physical impairments is a condition, which limits a child s physical abilities.
This type of handicap is usually visual. Children may use such things as wheel chairs, braces, or even have artificial limbs. A physically handicapped person has a disability that is a result of a neurological or an orthopedic impairment. Some severe medical conditions can also be a reason to label a child as handicapped. There are many types of physical disabilities.
