Question by Emily K ?: Speech path vs. special education?
i am wondering if anyone has any advice on Speech/language pathology vs. Special education for a career?

i would love working with special needs kids but i have no experience at it. but i am also interested in speech path? does speech path require more years of education?
any major differences in hours or salary in the two?
thanks so much (:

Best answer:

Answer by Gregg DesElms
Special education will most likely put you in a school setting.

Speech pathology may or may not. A speech pathologist could also be in any number of other settings… from clinics to private commercial enterprises.

A special education teacher is just a regular teacher with special special-education training and certification.

Question by wife of marine: Support for the mother carrying a profoundly disabled fetus?
I am a sociology major. I am in the middle of a research project and have hit a brick wall. What I am trying to determine is if there are currently any policies or programs out there to assist the mother in PREPARING to become the parent of a profoundly disabled infant. Most of the information about early intervention I have found deals with the infant and doesn’t deal with the mother while still pregnant. Another thing is when I concentrate on searches regarding the pregnant mother I get hung up on THOUSANDS of website concerned with whether or not the mother should abort. I’m not interested in an ethical debate. For my research project the mother has already decided to proceed with the delivery and simply wants help….regardless of income levels.
