Berger Family Story Goals
The Berger Family goals, as they see them:
The Berger Family wants professionals to accept them as equal partners and to respect their priorities, which are to plan for their sons' inclusion in school and community activities. Karin and Bob feel that professionals are reluctant to plan inclusively, but they are firmly committed to the principles of providing the boys with normal educational and social environments. Karin wants professionals to remember that, as parents, she and Bob should be in control of the situations that occur in their lives, even if their sons are going to be completely dependent on others for their care and nurturing.
