disabilities, mental retardation or emotional problems.

But on the other hand special child used to be and still is used to describe
mentally physically and just generally disabled children different coloured
children in this case and a ray of other differences.
For example
“Schoolmates in the classroom”
She thinks she’s such a SPECIAL CHILD flinching at loud noises
So although commonly used as praise there is the possibility of being mean.
Phenomena
2 experiments on the development of the understanding of random phenomena
are reported. Of interest was whether children understand the characteristic
uncertainty in the physical nature of random phenomena as well as the
unpredictability of outcomes. Children were asked, for both a random and a
determined phenomenon, whether they knew what its next outcome would be
and why. In Experiment 1, 4-, 5-, and 7-year-olds correctly differentiated their
responses to the question of outcome predictability; the 2 older groups also
mentioned appropriate characteristics of the random mechanism in explaining
why they did not know what its outcome would be. Although 3-year-olds did not
differentiate the random and determined phenomena, neither did they treat both
phenomena as predictable. This latter result is inconsistent with Piaget and
Inhaler’s characterization of an early stage of development. Experiment 2 was
designed to control for the possibility that children in Experiment 1 learned how
to respond on the basis of pertest experience with the 2 different phenomena. 5-
and 7-year-olds performed at a comparable level to the same-aged children in
Experiment 1. Results suggest an earlier understanding of random phenomena
than previously has been reported and support results in the literature indicating
an early understanding of causality.
Both cerebral palsy and Down syndrome; are considered disabilities, and they
have certain characteristics in common. It is also possible for a child to be born
with both conditions. Both children with cerebral palsy and those with Down
syndrome are likely to face lifelong challenges. These challenges can include
discrimination, physical disabilities, mental and emotional health issues, and
problems with inclusion and social isolation.
