Abstract

The concept of inclusion is widely accepted, but special groups are still often marginalized, which include deafness, blindness, etc. This paper will use the comparative method to compare the current situation of children with special needs in the two regions from three aspects of inclusive education, family, and social support, hoping to provide effective information for future research. Through comparison, this paper found schools, teachers, and families see special children as a burden. In inclusive education, the lack of special equipment and the lack of professional knowledge of teachers has resulted in the inability of many children with special needs to receive an education. Families with special children are more impoverished because of expensive treatment costs, so many family members will abandon special children. Social support for special children is also very limited. The most widely supported special children are generally deaf children and blind children. Others, such as sensory integration disorders, emotional disorders, autism, bipolar disorder, and other children, can hardly enjoy it. to social support. The disadvantaged groups of children with special needs can affect their physical and mental development, but research shows that children with special needs can be unparalleled treasures if they are nurtured in the right way.
