Integrating the perspectives of children with DLD and their families into research and practice
There are many drivers for listening to the perspectives of children with DLD and their families into research and practice. For example, partnership and collaboration with children and families are core features of both family-centred and child-centred care. Another driver is the pillar of ‘client/caregiver perspectives’ in evidence-based practice which refers to the unique characteristics, contexts, values, and expectations which each child with DLD and their family bring to the table. Further drivers are Article 19 of the Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and Article 2 of the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child (1989), which state that children and young people have the right be involved in decisions that affect them.
Despite these drivers, embedding the perspectives of children with DLD and their families in research and practice remains challenging. In this presentation, I discuss what we know about parental perspectives about DLD and collaborative working with families. I will discuss research on the perspectives of children and young people with DLD. I will outline the value of qualitative research to enable us to listen to and amplify the perspectives of children and families. I will explore how we can do better in terms of integrating the perspectives of children and young people with DLD and their parents into research and practice.
