Abstract

KUPFER, Maria Cristina M.  and  PETRI, Renata. ''Why should we teach children who can't learn?. Estilos clin. [online]. 2000, vol.5, n.9, pp. 109-117. ISSN 1415-7128.

In this paper, we discuss that the individual differences, which are on the basis of special education, are not natural, but historically determined. The creation of school in modern world produces, at the same time, the special child. Thus, the school faces great difficulties in reabsorbing that child. We also discuss the inclusion of psychotic and autistic children, and we believe that this inclusion is therapeutic for them. Finally, we discuss the idea that the inclusion should be done in all cases.

Keywords : Inclusion; infantile psychosis; autism; special education.
