This article presents conclusions from analysis of the social functioning of a boy with autism in a preschool for children with special needs. The purpose of the study was to explore strengths and weaknesses in the social functioning of a boy with autism completing his preschool education. A case study was used as a research method, and observation and interview – as research techniques. The findings suggest that the social functioning of the boy with autism is at a level that allows him to continue education in an integrated or general education school as long as he is supported by a special teacher. The boy communicates his needs, has learned basic self-care skills, and follows preschool classroom rules. With adequate support from specialists and his parents, he is also able to establish healthy peer relationships.

Childhood is the basis for both life and language acquisition. The child language is greatly influenced by the language environment – parents and other family members, teachers, as well as movies, TV and radio broadcasting, theatre performances, books. Meanwhile exploring the world and characterizing it, the child gradually acquires the skill to use in its language synonyms, antonyms, phraseology, comparisons, learns to understand foreign origin words used on daily basis, etc.In order to establish, which factors are influencing positively the child language development, a questionnaire was worked out. Students, general education school teachers, as well as the preschool education teachers completed the questionnaire. The research on the factors influencing the children's language development was accomplished in the framework of the Norwegian project in 2015. The results of the questionnaire and opinion polls prove, the childhood stage is very significant in the child language development, and really great is the responsibility of adults (parents and teachers), to ensure that this process develops as valid, interesting and exciting for the child. One of the conditions for successful acquisition of the Latvian language vocabulary stock is the example shown by the speech of adults. The use of illiterate language must also be eliminated from schools, mass media, etc.

Wrong Diagnosis

The article deals with the problem of multidimensionality of the symptoms occurring in school phobia ‒ a disorder in relation to which a different, sometimes wrong diagnosis is made. The symptom appearing in a child is symbolic. It is often a signal that must be well recognised to find out its meaning, purpose and causes. Through the symptom, the child speaks about himself in the language that is available to him, because the symptom always communicates something. The article proposes different, general approach to the symptom in which the structure, time, emotions and types of symptoms are important. These issues are illustrated in an individual case study of a teenage Mateusz. The conclusion that arises after an in-depth case analysis allows us to believe, that effective psychological and pedagogical help requires following the child and what the child communicates consciously and unconsciously.

Although recurrent and chronic pain impacts the whole life of a child and or adolescent, little research has been conducted on social consequences of chronic pain for children and adolescents. Emerging research suggests that (1) peer relationships, including close friendships, of children and adolescents with chronic pain may be negatively impacted by pain and (2) social reactions from others can negatively impact the child or adolescent’s pain experience. School functioning may also be impaired as a result of chronic pain. Clinicians should understand the challenges experienced by children with chronic pain and should attend to the social and school consequences of pain when working with this population. Although little research has examined interventions to manage the effects of chronic pain on school and social functioning, researchers have identified helpful strategies that may mitigate the negative consequences to social and school functioning associated with chronic pain.
