FAMILY INTERVIEW
The Parent of a Child with an Exceptionality
Wichita State University
Spring 2021
CI 401

Introduction
As an educator, learning about our students and their lives is imperative to our jobs.
Every child comes from a different background, and every child and every background are
unique. Every family is different, and in order to fully understand the students in our care, we
need to also understand their families, (Friend and Cook, 2017, p. 267). One type of student
that I need a deeper understanding of is a student who has an identified exceptionality. A
student with an exceptionality is any student who has a disability or giftedness that requires
additional services in an educational setting. More specifically, a disability could be
characterized as limitations imposed on an individual including, but not limited to, physical,
cognitive, sensory, emotional, or learning limitations. In order to learn more about the family
life of a child with an exceptionality, I interviewed the mother of a student who is
developmentally delayed.
Methods
The child who I was interested in learning more about is a kindergarten student at
Gammon Elementary School in Wichita, KS. I was able to sit in on the student’s annual
Individualized Education Program (IEP) meeting, which was attended by the mother via Zoom.
After which, I was able to conduct my interview with her about her son. I met with her virtually
on March 16, 2021 for about thirty minutes. Gammon’s special education teacher joined the
2
meeting as well to help facilitate the conversation. I first started by acquiring some background
information about the student’s mother and their family.
She is a single mother, the father is, at the mother’s insistence, completely out of the
picture. She has two children, a daughter who is in 2nd grade, and a son, who is the
kindergartener and the focus of the interview. She is 28 years old and has lived in Wichita all
her life. She works for Phoenix Home Care and Hospice and is in the process of pursuing her
nursing degree and medication aid certificate at WSU Tech. They are a low-income, African
American family, and the mother was very shy during her IEP meeting and during the interview.
I was told that this is common for her and her demeanor. Having the special education teacher
present for our meeting likely made the mother feel more comfortable, considering that they
have an established relationship. Prior to the interview, the special education teacher
approached the mother on my behalf and gave her the consent form to participate in the
process. The special education teacher also went through the list of potential questions that I
had given her, and she picked out the questions that she thought would be appropriate to ask,
given the mother’s background and personality. The interview went as follows:

ROSA - DEVELOPMENT ACROSS CULTURES (IMMIGRANT)
Rosa at age 6 is at the transition stage between early and middle childhood. Her family came to work in the U.S. as migrant workers when Rosa was a toddler. Her father had worked in the U.S. for an extended time previous to marrying Rosa's mother. As a family they continue to struggle economically. She lives with her extended family including her mother, father, maternal grandmother and two siblings. She did not participate in formal early childhood preschool experiences but was in the care of her maternal grandmother while her parents worked. Rosa has completed a year of all-day kindergarten in a southwestern state. Her family had previously made many moves, but has been in the same local area for more than a year. The primary language spoken at home is Spanish. Several issues have emerged as Rosa is making the transition to first grade.
The kindergarten teacher completed a checklist/profile of Rosa's development in the areas of Cognitive, Language, Physical and Social Development.
The results indicated that compared to expected development at age 6:
· Rosa is not demonstrating cognitive development skills expected for her age. She struggles with early literacy concepts linked to reading and writing.
· Rosa has the ability to "code-switch" in speaking Spanish or English based on the context of those in her environment. She converses with her grandmother and mother and father primarily in Spanish and with her teacher and classmates in English, although her father does speak with Rosa and her siblings in English as well as Spanish.
· Rosa is small in stature. Her health history, including her prenatal records, does not indicate any significant issues. She is average in her gross and fine motor abilities. She is reluctant to engage in group physical activities.
· Rosa is often observed playing near other children, immersed in her own activities. She does not appear to reach out to other children to become involved in their play. Her teacher describes her as slow to warm up in social situations.
EMMA - DEVELOPMENT ACROSS FAMILY CONTEXTS (FOSTER CARE)
Emma at age 6 is at the transition stage between early and middle childhood. She is bi-racial child whose mother is Caucasian and father, whom she has never met, is Filipino. Emma lived with her single mother until she was a toddler, when her maternal grandparents became her primary caregivers. This was a voluntary placement. There were no official reports of abuse or neglect on file; however the grandparents raised concerns that Emma was being neglected while in their adult daughter's care. They expressed a concern that Emma may have been left strapped into her high ch.
