Education Reality Coping with Sexual Abuse in Students with Intellectual Disabilities
Main Article Content
Abstract
Education about coping with sexual abuse in students with intellectual disabilities is important. From the survey results, both caregivers and teachers believe that it is necessary to equip students with intellectual disabilities with knowledge and skills to deal with sexual abuse. The survey results also show that despite being aware of the importance of this issue, the educational status of students with intellectual disabilities is still limited. The communication between the family and the school in the coordination of education response is still loose.
Keywords:
Sexual abuse, eduction coping skill, students with intellectual disabilities.
