Situation: Peter suffers from cerebral palsy. His parents delayed sending him to school to receive education. Now he is ten and his peers are studying in Grade 4. His father begins thinking of sending him to an elementary school. However, his mother argues that the medical treatment should be preferred and he should postpone schooling until the disease is cured.
Question: Which side of the parents do you stand on? Should the child receive education or continue the medical treatment? Or can you suggest a better way to help Peter?
