Abstract
Drawing on her experiences and those of other parents, the author explores issues that most closely touch parents as they deal with professionals in trying to get the best possible life for their visually impaired children. For example, how can parents tell if they have selected the “right” doctor or teacher for their child? How can they obtain information from professionals that would enable them to give “informed consent” for education or medical procedures? The author gives examples of what was helpful and what proved harmful.
