During adolescence, when dating and sexuality are usually explored, disabled youth generally come to realize that the standard norms of attraction and romance do not apply to them. Discussions about romance and sex are often avoided by parents, teachers, health care providers, and sometimes also by able-bodied siblings and/or peers, either in a misguided attempt to shelter children with disabilities from emotional pain, or because they perceive these issues to be irrelevant. Correspondingly, children and adolescents with disabilities are frequently encouraged to focus their energies on goals presumed to be more realistic and attainable than dating, marriage, and childbearing—school being a common point of emphasis.

Could you perhaps assist me in getting some information about the community service orders (CSO) program verified? According to what I’ve heard, a court may issue a CSO order requiring a person who has reached the age of 14 or older and has been found guilty of a crime carrying a sentence of imprisonment to perform unpaid work for a number of hours up to 240 hours per month while being supervised by a probation officer. Can I refer to those as CSO scheme activities?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
