Children are educated in the education and rehabilitation center’s for two hours, twice a week. Teachers work with them mostly on an individual basis. The mothers who come to the centers with their children wait in the education hall until the end of the session, and no education pro-gram is available for these mothers except for the information occasionally given about the condition of their children.

After completion of the post-tests, mothers who were willing were given the same educational program by the researchers depending on their visiting days at the center’s. In June 2009, the same four-week education program was given once a week.
