Explain how far we have come and what still needs to be addressed (such as terminology, acceptance, and support).
Explain how laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the IDEA influence these decisions.
Identify the ethical principles that might apply to the situation. Consider the professional ethics codes, including the following:
American Psychological Association. (2010). Ethical principles of psychologists and code of conduct.
American Counseling Association. (2005). ACA code of ethics. Alexandria, VA: Author.
Synthesize your research and create two arguments: one for and one against parents with intellectual disabilities raising children. Consider the perspectives of the parents as well as the children. Use evidence and examples from research, utilizing your assigned readings, and at least two peer-reviewed articles on this topic to support your argument.

Given what you learned in the video, your assigned readings, and research you found, recommend supports or interventions for the following:

The family
Within the community for the family and child
