**16. Parental support role**

The case study demonstrates how important it is for parents to be involved in their children's efforts to develop their own sense of independence and to take care of their overall health and well-being. The responsibility of assisting the child in areas such as communication, sensory processing, social skills, and emotional well-being was taken on by the parent. This is consistent with the idea that parents can play an important part in supplementing and strengthening the efforts that are made through formal schooling.
