I like to point out this interesting article published today in the Journal of Vicenza.
06-10-2008 - visually handicapped children "cured" with the meaning of waste and love.
Il Giornale di Vicenza
born a child with severe visual impairment: what to do? For a parent it is difficult to rework the grief that causes the painful birth of a child with severe visual impairment. It results in an understandable but unwarranted feelings of guilt, confusion, despair and, sometimes, despair. What to do? Since the birth of a child blind, visually impaired compared to a severe reaction to external stimuli in a radically different. From the blind child perceives, albeit without distinction, the face of whoever is holding her hands early and tends towards the colored shapes hanging from the cradle; six months to turn his head to locate the origin of a sudden noise and extends to all what he sees, then crawling, without even account, is related to space. Little or none of this occurs in the blind: he, if not promptly encouraged to make contact with his surroundings, unmotivated to get out of himself, remains inert in the most important period for mental and physical growth and affect, sometimes in irreversibly, the orderly development of his personality. It is essential that caregivers know him leverage with competence and trust, under debris. If it is proven that 80% of visually impaired adults of knowledge derived from visual experience, it is also scientifically proven that all children, pre-school, they begin to internalize concepts and experiences mainly interacting with the environment through touch. In other words, tactile exploration experienced early in life depend mainly, the cognitive processes in both the blind in the blind. Prof. Antonio Quatraro in Courier Braille No 8.11, shows that by manipulating all of us as kids, we have implemented the three-dimensional geometric shapes and then and only by exploring the tactile feel smooth and rough. By the fire he savored the warmth with your body, and the body moving, he finds space. There is common ground between touch and sight that matches the idea of \u200b\u200bspace and acquisition of property geometriche.Sicuramente proper contact with environments, objects and people who can not sees a normal love life and take their place in society. Currently, among other things, the technology allows him to access any type of information. This is not to deny the limitations, difficulties, hardships and above the inevitable dependence on others means that the visually impaired, it is intended only to demonstrate that, despite everything, the blind, using the messages it receives from under debris, can lead a happy and rewarding life. This is possible even to those who have lost their sight as adults if they do not regret adagino on the lost goods, but fail to integrate their perceptions evoking visual images internalized in the past.
