This paper analyzes difficulties of families with handicapped children and their needs for social services. The data collected from 105 parents of children with developmental disabilities attending specialized schools in the city revealed the time they discovered signs of their children's developmental delays, difficult familial problems after the discovery, and the desire to be supported by the society. Survey outcomes showed parents’ lack of knowledge about signs of child developmental delay, shortage of social workers to assist them in the early detection, diagnosis and assessments of their child's disability, as well as to help parents look for social services; thereby, proposing some tasks to be fulfilled by social workers to support families with child developmental disabilities.

The Audiokinetron is a device that processes music for earphone presentation to patients undergoing auditory integration training, a treatment for individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities. Intensity levels produced by the Audiokinetron were measured under realistic listening conditions with a KEMAR manikin substituted for a patient. Average levels at the eardrum were 110 dB SPL when the device was adjusted to the highest setting employed by a local, trained AIT practitioner and 118 dB SPL at the maximum setting of the device. These levels are potentially harmful to hearing and warrant further safety studies of AIT instruments and protocols.
