They might also be able to lip-read or they might use sign language to communicate. Being deaf or hard of hearing doesn't mean life is any less exciting and interesting!Something's Wrong!: Kids with Emotional Disturbance (Kids with Special Needs: IDEA (Individua)
By Sheila Stewart. 2011
Emotions can be tricky things. Sometimes, a person has lots of negative emotions, and he doesn't know what to do…

By Zachary Chastain. 2011
Kids just want to be kids. They want to spend time with their friends and enjoy life. When a kid…
has a chronic illness, though, it can be a lot more difficult to do those things. Depending on which illness a person has, she might feel too tired to play or be in too much pain to be able to have a good time. With an illness like epilepsy, a person might feel fine most of the time but still have to restrict his life because of the illness. Even when their illness gets in the way of the things they want to do, though, kids with chronic illness are still kids, and they will find ways to enjoy life however they can.The Hidden Child: Kids with Autism (Kids with Special Needs: IDEA (Individua)
By Sheila Stewart. 2011

By Sheila Stewart. 2011
Some secrets are good and some are bad. When somebody asks you to keep a secret about something that makes…
you feel uncomfortable, you might not know what to do. Should you keep the secret because the person is your friend, or a member of your family, or someone older than you that you like and respect? Or should you tell someone like a parent or teacher? You might feel like you are betraying a person if you tell his secret, or maybe you are afraid to tell, but some secrets shouldn't be kept. Some secrets cause a lot more trouble when they stay secret and the best thing you can do is talk about them with someone you trust.Protecting Your Body: Germs, Superbugs, Poison, & Deadly Diseases

By Sheila Stewart. 2011
For kids who have family members in prison, the emotions can be confusing and overwhelming. A person whose brother or…
sister--or parent--is in prison might be angry or sad or ashamed, or all these things at the same time. She might want to visit her family member, or she might be so angry she doesn't want to see him at all. Often, kids who have a relative in prison don't want to tell anybody what's going on because they are embarrassed, and other people don't usually understand what they must be feeling. Families all handle this experience differently, but each member faces a big adjustment, needing love and support from each other and from friends.I Live in Two Homes: Adjusting to Divorce and Remarriage (Kids Have Troubles Too)
By Sheila Stewart. 2011
Divorce and remarriage are fairly common today, but for the kids whose family structure is changing around them it is…
never easy. Kids adjusting to their parents divorcing or remarrying sometimes feel like they are the only ones who have ever felt the things they are feeling.

Despite the challenges, many kids discover that these changes have benefits and bring good things they did not expect.I Like Me (Kids Have Troubles Too)

perfectly, but it's also important to really like who you are. Sometimes, people feel badly about themselves because they think they aren't as pretty or as smart or as talented as another person. But nobody is going to be perfect. Nobody is going to be the best and the best looking all the time. Looking deep down and finding those things you really do like about yourself, and then building on those things, will help you feel happier and more relaxed and will also help you do better in life.Why Is Brian So Fat?
