Parents of blind children need counselling The greatest service to the 1691 blind children under the age of 15, in Canada, is continued counselling of parents. At a recent conference at The Canadian National Institute for the Blind, Toronto, 28 social service workers, representing CNIB offices through Canada, agreed that blind children need understanding and encouragement from their parents. "This is where the social service worker comes in," said Miss Louise Cowan, chairman of the four-day conference and Director, National Social Services, CNIB. "Parents in turn need support and counsel in helping their blind child adjust to his lack of sight," she said. "It is up to the social service worker to point out what is necessary for a blind child's normal development. Parents should be made aware of the services offered by the CNIB and the community which can best help their child." When a blind child reaches school age, his education should be arranged by parents and social service workers in co-operation with schools for the blind. There are six such schools in Canada— in Brantford, Halifax, Vancouver and three in Montreal. Many blind students go on . to higher education. In fact, more th; '170 blind students are stun.; beyond the high school level a. sighted community' colleges and universities. However, the young blind person who has an additional handicap such as mental retardation is not always capable of getting an education and finding employment. Delegates felt that these people should have leisure activities which are community based so that thd multiple- handicapped person is not cut off from family and friends. Delegates were also concerned with helping blind adults do what they want to do. "We have to get away from the tradition of imposing on the blind what we think is good for them," Miss Cowan said. "Blind people have to be regarded as individuals, not as a cluster of blind people." The conference, the first since 1966, gave the social service workers an opportunity to exchange ideas and discuss problems. • Perth and Lambton counties were represented in sessions on white beans presented as part of the Southwestern Ontario Farmers' Week held at Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology, January 10 through 14.
