Abstract

This research investigates the impact of parental engagement on the social and communication development of children with developmental delays, using the case of Eleisa, a 2-year-old child diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Through in-depth interviews, the study identifies five key themes: the central role of occupational therapy, encountered challenges like tantrums, effective coping mechanisms, strategic communication style adaptation, and observable progress. Occupational therapy emerges as crucial for fostering various skills, conducted weekly emphasizing nonverbal communication. Challenges, such as tantrums, highlight the childs struggle to communicate, while effective coping mechanisms and adapted communication styles play essential roles. The absence of gadgets positively influences the childs behavior. Overall, this research provides valuable insights into the complex dynamics of parental involvement in short-term interventions, emphasizing its significant influence on enhancing social and communication abilities in children with developmental delays.
