In another two months’ time the scout Movement wi11 be celebrating its 75th Anniversary。 Through the decades fo11owing its incePti。 n the MoveJ ment・ s objective of deve1op△ ng responsib1e citizenshiP ェ n the yρ ung has ∷ served a11 coⅡ munities well。 Today in this age of raPid social change and the increasing Pressures which such changes bring, scouting is a11 the more imPortant in assisting youth to develoP into resPectable and ∷ Constructive meⅢ bers of soc△ ety。 Hong Kong has had a l° ng history of Scouting actiVities。 As ear1y as 1909, the first gT° up was fo‘ Ⅱ1ed in St。 JosePh・ s college。 since then it has proven so Popular that today no 1east than 770 groups numbering 40,000 members hold regu1ar meetings vnder the guidance of their vo1untary Scout Leaders。 This is a remarkable achievement。

It is not often rea1ised that the first teaⅡ of Voluntary Leaders of handicapped scouts was already in existence some 25 years ago。 The firsl sCout grouP for the disabled was established at the leProsari” m 。n Hay Ling chau which becane defunct 10 years later beCause that 主nstituˉ tion was no 1onger required。 However the second grouP, which wOs fo‘ Ⅲed in 1956 at the HOng Kong School for the Dea￡ , has remained active right up to the present。 From the earliest times, the Pr。 moters of scouting for the disabled have discovered that scouting is as useful a tool to handiCapped youths as it is to the nonˉ handicaPped・ sc° uting pFOvides equal oPp° rtunities for disab1ed youths to set their goals, to strIVe after them, and to achieve them, in co“ More "IOn "ith their coInrades who are able-bodied。 iⅡportantly, it provides an environment in which disab1ed youths are he1ped to achieve not only fu11 particiPation in but a1so fu11 Integra~ tion w△ th the rest of the commun△ ty which is both the theme of the Un△ te( Nations and o"r obu theⅢ e for this Inte‘ ational Υear of Disabled Person{ J▲

Υou

They may have physica1, mental or sensory impairments。 Their limbs, thcir b° dies, their vital organs, their minds have missing or damaged cOmponents。 They may bc Para1yzed户 or move with difficulty and awkwardncss, unablc to keep up w1th the madding crowd; they may havc limitcd hearing or at w° rsc, bc comp1ctcly dcaf t。 the sounds, thc voiccs and thc music of our living wor1d; they may have impaired vision in onc °r both eycs ~ at the worst, they may be tota11y blind to tho fOrms, thc shapcs, thc colours, the beauty of our surroundings; they may havc limitcd menta1 capacity bccausc of brain damage or ma1nutrition - unablc to 1earn or aCquirc knowlcdgo and skills, unawarc of the full impact of progrcss and dcvclopment in our world 。f tOday; they may be emOtionally disturbed, unab1c tO copO with the realities and pressurcs of life, of responsibility, cven °f living in our fast-changing world。 In many situations, thcse persons may have more than one impairment。 Many morc are unab1e tO help the【 ns c1vcs to fced themselves, tO 1ook after their own persOnal necessitics, to earn, to lcarn, to 1ive, evcn to lOvc, These then arc the disab1cd Pers° ns: the b1ind, the deaf, the cripp1ed, the c° I`genitally deformcd, the autistic, the epi1eptic, the spastic, the menta11y retarded, the emotiona11y disturbed, the pΙ ematurely seni1e。 There are 500 mi11ions persOns tOday whO are disabled。 In fact, unitcd Nations statistics rcvea⊥ that °ne in evcry 9 persons throughout the world is disabled。 500 mi11iOn persons approximatcly equals the cntire

population of Europe! Of thesc number, hOwever, the vast majority 11vc in the poor and deve1oping countries of Our world。 Based On present forecasts, there will be 750 mi11i° n people who are disabled at the end °f this centruy - within thc next 19 years ! - within our lifetime! And what of the childrcn amongst them?

Let ne tell you

。。.。

AGcording to VNICEF, one Child in ten is born with an impairment or Some children becOme b1ind, deaf, physically acquires it in childhood。 handicapPed, menta11y retarded or emotiona11y disturbed in their Today, most of these children, including most disablcd formative years。 adu1ts " 。。。。 do n0t receive even the basic rehabilitation assistance the combination of treatment, education and training that wi11 he1p thcm to use their capabilities to the maximum。 They are caught in a web of misunderstanding, myth and superstition。 This is especia11y true of thc 120 million disab1ed chi1dren 1iving today in the developing countrics of the wor1d。 "

By the year 2000 Conly 19 years away from today!) oη e third of the s tota1 Population will be under 15 years of age, living in deVeloping areas 。。。。 and 150 million of these children will be disabled! Such is the oVerP° wering magnitude and the enoェ Ⅱlous challenge of disab1ed

wor1d’

persons。

In recognition of this wor1d-wide situation, the United Nations Gcneral Assembly of 1976 declared 1981 as the InternatiOnal Υear of Disabled Persons (IΥ DP). AnxiOus to do their share, the sGout Association Of Hong Kong convened this seminar to seek practica1 ways with which Scouting can contribute its efforts and its assistancc in thc scrvice of disabled persons cverywhere。

We have a1ways had the disab1ed amongst us。 But most of the time, perhaps because of ignorance, we tend to keep most of them in their own units。 0nce in a whi1e, we gathcr them, more to show the pub1ic OcGasiona11y, than to give fun and enjoyment to the disab1ed Scouts。 we have conducted 1eader training courses for ScOuters who wi11 work But what has bcen 1ackGod knows we try。 with a Particular handicap。 ing a11 along has been a GOncerted cffort to face the prob1em of disab1ed Scouts realistica11y and on a Continuing basis.

In applying a systems approach to the prob1en of what Scouting G Guiding can do, we rea1ize that one of our consistent strengths is our Proven Our movement and more particu1arly our leaders, experience in training。 have trenendous eXperience oVer the last 74 years in the training of both adu1t 1eaders and the youth。 Training in safety for example, is a basiG subject in a11 sy11abi for progress training or advancement in In the preventive phase of our taining vis-a-vis both ScOuts F. Guides。 the disab1ed, we need to teach the young that a great number of Evcryone disabi1ity-causing situations can be avo1ded and prevented。 must be made aware of the dangers of malnutrition; that accidents can be prevented in the home, in the play areas of children, in thc roads and highways of our country and in the work stations of our adult sOciety

Wc need to educate a11 our leaders and olJr Scouts to respeGt the worth and digη ity eVery human being, abandon socia1 and customary discriminao tion against the disabled and more important, accept the disabled as equa1s, fu11y entitled to 1ead decent, productive and rewarding 1ives. We can aGcoⅡP1ish this by train主 ng mature leaders who can he1p create opportunities to deve1op and motivate the capabi1ities and ski11s of the disab1ed, howeVer 1imited, to enable them to be as self-re1iant In the process, the Community itself wi11 be benefited; as P° ssib1e。 but more iηportant, we Wipe away the m△ sery and restore the dignity of 土n the the disabled individua1 who has the right to fu11y particiPate If we 1ife and deVelopment of their communities and their societies。 do so, we can brighten the lives of so many of our disab1ed by he1ping them to make a positive contribution to community 1ife。 In recent years, new ski11s=training techniques and remedia1 therapics confirm the increasing rea1ization that tremendous improvements Can be achieved with chi1dren and children yet to be born through the utilization of modern know1edge in the fie1ds of medicine and nutrition。 I submit that 1essons learned from these developments shou1d form an intcgral Part °f the training process for our youth。 Aftcr having 1carned thcse, they can influencc thc peopl0 and the coⅢ munity around them。 Morc imPortant, we shall bc preparing the youth in a better way to carry on their rolc as futurc parents of children yct to be born。 Pcrhaps in this way, we can discount the blcak statistica1 forecast I quOtCd ear1ier on the dismal figure of disablcd chi1dren 19 years from now。

During the next few days, you will mu11 ovCr the apa11ing situation of disab1cd persons。 After 1981, the Internationa1 Year or Disabled Pcrsons Wi11 be over。 I sincerely hope the spcctre of the 120 mi11ion disab1ed chi1dren liVing today in the developing countries of the world, wi11 Prod you to seek fresh and Workable ideas - p命 rticular1y practical ideas within the capabi1ities and strengths of your scout organizations。 I Pray you wi11 not be bogged down in rhetoric or semantics but that inspired by a sense of mission, a11 of you, individua11y and collective1y, wi11 formu1ate and develop action P1ans designed to invo1ve SCouting and Guiding in each of youf countr△ es ェn a more meaningfu1 way to a11eViate the Plight of the disabled - and more explicitly, the disab1ed Children of today, tomorrow and in the years to cone。

11y HandicapPed

1 have hqard S￠ outing called 卩any things (n。 t all of them comple由 entary)9 but I am always p1eased when I hear tho words "Scout MoVement” 9 because they imply that we are caPable of changing with the times。 In view of this recogη 1tion of Change may I be a11owed to share with you the changes in sc° uting with the handicapped as I have seen them and use the story t° show how wo havo beon prepared to change our programmes to fit the needs of the boy。

When I was a Scout,a boy with ca1iPers (leg ir。 ns) joined my Troop。 He 1eft two lasting imPressI0ns on me, one, the marks of h圭 s 1eg irons on my legs because he was a11owed to play games with them on, while we had to wear gym shoes, t1】 e second, the know1edge that a physica11' disabled boy would take Part in ordinary Scout activities Provided some a11owance was made for h1s disadvanta虫 e. (This was 40 years ago)。 When I qua1ified as a -octor the then Chief Commissioner for NortheΙ " Ireland asked me to adv土 se the Northern Ire1and Scout CounCi1 0n medical matters rclating to HandicapPed Sc0uting (as it was ca11ed in those days)。 My first task was to visit a hospita1 group where children were boing treated for bone tuborcu1osis。 I remember that the scarf worn by the boys was red in co1our and on the oack was 已 0esigη of a broken wheel With a wing attacoed t° the broken Part - their motto Was "Speed the Broken Wheel"。 Bone tubercu1osis decfeased 钭nd the hosPita1 was theo us0d for children with tho def9rm=ties suffer。 d aftor Poliomye1ities。 This has been almost wiPed out in North0rη Ireland and there is no neod for such a hosP△ tal TrooP, 王 ndeed the hosP△ tal is used for the care ° f th。 elderly。

。氓

The 1esson to be learned from this is that scoutiig has to be aWare of the neods of the boy。 The Organization must know of the Conditi° Ⅱs Which might affect theiF Programme。 Fo△ th土 s, expert med土 ca1 know1edge is required certain1y at nati° na1 1evel, As a result of a m0dical ’lookoout’ in the Uhited Kingdom the scout AssoCiation was PrePare- for tho -emand for SCouting by boys wh° ha- been d0maged in utero by the drug thalidamide, As a r0sult of the toxiG effects of this drug, whiCh Was taken by mothers for Pregη ancy sickness, chi1dren were born With absent or deformed 1ihbs。 This epidem立 c has passed, but sCouting w钭 s ready for it。 I would 0ommand to you the apPointment of an epidemiological sPecialist to your △ational committees for Extensi0n sc。 uting s° that you are Prepared foF changes in the inGidenCe of handicappiη g condition9 which are knowη of, earlier than Cub Scout age。 . Can I now switch to the individua1 boy! Medica1 training has taught me that there is great value in the one-to-one re1ationship, the so-ca11ed doctor-patient trust。 This is a1so applicab1e to the Leader-boy re1ationsh△ p。 Each boy’ s un△ queness must bo respected and his diε η△ty as an individua1 acknow1edged, If a boy has a hBndicaPP△ ng c° nCition th。n the Leader’ s task is more difficult, but PerhaPs more rew钋 rding。 HONG

There are three main types, spastiG, athetoid and ataxic。

The sPastic form is assOciated with muscle spasm and can affect legs, arms, one Or both sides of the body。 If moved too quickly the spasms beGome worse and if the boy becomes nervous because of bad handling the inⅤ oluntary movements increase。

。

There is often an able boy allocated to a whee1-chair boy, as a "pusher", These "Puζ hers" are often enthusiastic, too keen perhaPs9 and they need training in whee1-chair pushing and hand1ing the boy △n the cha△ r, ,°

nd Hydrocephalus

Spina Bifida can vary from a simple bony defect of the neura1 arches of one or more Ⅴertebrae is being assOciated with abnorma1ity of the lower end of the spira1 cord and its meninges (covering of the C° rd). The more severe defects of the lower end of the spiral cord result in Paralysis of the legs and/or paralysis of the bladder。 A high proportion of children with spina bifida have hydrocepha1us。 Hydrocephalus is due to an obstruction to the flow of cerebro-sPinal fluid, which is secreted into the ventricles within the brain。 With the obstruction the ventricles enlarge and compress the surrounding bra1n tissue with resu1tant enlargement Of the head。 Insertion of a Spitz-Ho1ter va1ve between the ventricles and the heart or great Vesse1s reduGes the hydrocephalus。 If the va1ve becomes b1oGked the boy will complain of headaGhe and vomit。 Because of b1adder paralysis, the bladder must be emPtied by manua1 pressure, and i$ more liable to injection than usual。 Poliomye1it is Now rare in Great Britain。 Last ePidemic in 19s7 but still causing muGh muscular paralysis in many parts of the world。

Many of the children suffering from these paralytic conditions require wheelˉ chairs。 In this 'ear 。 f Disable- Persoη s, the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents l1ave produced a WheOI ChaiF Proficiency Test。 This is an addition to their we11 established Cyc1e proficiency Test which is used in United Kingdom by both Cubs and Scouts, I haVe copies of the test which you might find useful。 Υou will see that it apP1ies is whee1-chairs provided by the Government only (DHSS 。η the paPeⅡ ) and is not a fun test for sOmeone wanting a ride, This puts the physica11y handicapped boy at a certain advantage over his ab1e-bodied firneds。

Muscular DystrcPhy This is a comParatively rare condition characterized by wasting of musc1es leading to progressive weakness。 In most cases it is inherited。

As the disease progresses the boy is una-1e to Pr。pe1 the chair pusher’ as the arms get Weaker he cannot hold obje0ts and needs a ’ of feed hi】 p,self。 At n△ ght he needs to be turned to prevent -iscomfort。 As b1ood CiFculation in the legs is poor he mu§ t be k0pt warm out Of doors. Death is usua11y in ad01escenc0 from respiret° ry infeCti。 n, This is a most distressing time fo' Leaders and other boys in a Troop。 Leaders are often looking for some advice on how long a Particular boy wi11 1ive。

rc Prescn1ing my Input Paper, I have to ask your permission for my One is my insufficicnt ability of English。 Actually, I am lir,;uistica11y handicapped, and thorefore I solicit your paticnce and un(erstanding, which deserves a "handiCaPped" Pers° n。 Secondly, I am nct know1edgeable °f your cxperience an。 needs as to the given theme o】 "Integrating the Menta11y Retarded"。 Without the knowledge and 三nsight, I dared to prepare my paper, and I am still wondering if those who have a1ready had a considerable experience in Scouting with the mentally retarded will find my presentatiOn very boring。 Bef亻

M)` ta1k can be divided largc1y into 3 parts。

The first part is the undcrstanding about menta1 rctardation and thc fundamental matters of the mentally retarded, without any reference to scouting。 The second part c° nccrns sc° uting for the mcntally rOtarded - its history, meaning, characteristiGs, etc。 Then, lastly, I am g° ing to shoW you, by using s1ides and video tape, what we in Japan have accOmplished in Scouting with the mentally retarded。

SOME UNDERSTANDING ABOUT MENTAL RETARDΛ TIoN By a rough classification, handicaps are divided into two groups, physica1 handicap and menta1 retardation。 COmparatively speaking, the formcr has gained some understanding among the genera1 PubliC, while public undorstanding tOward mental retardation is far from satisfactory。 In °bservation Of the Intern(1tional Υear of Disab1ed persons, I notice the physically handicapped are mOre independent, more positiVe than the nlentally retarded。 I must admit the mentally retarded inevitably rely upon the activitics of parcnts。 For this and other reasons, it sCems tc meD although very rcgrettt1ble, that public interest toward the q1:estio:l of mental retardation in the International Ycar of Disabled Porsons is very low, in GOnlparison with their attitudc toward physiCa1 h(1ndicaρ 。

retardation is characterized by a below average being leve1 of intelleCtual functioning: the causation being some abnormality during the developmental period: and by an inability to Cope in the sOciety of which the handicapped is a member"。

From the developmental point of view, menta1 retardation is not mere1y limited to inte11ectua1 grOwth, but the delay appears in the physica1 and menta1 functiOning of his overa11 body。 It should be construed as "Deve1oPmental Handicap". Mental rctardation is no rcspccter of race, nationality, socia1 or ecOnomic status。 It appears, however, that retardation duc to environmental deprivation is more apt to be fOund among children from low socio-ecOnomic groups。 Menta1 retardation may or may not be comP1iCated by aCcompanying emotiona1 disturbance and/Or physical handicaP。 Retarded persons have feelings and emotiona1 responses that are basically nOrmal, althOugh they Ⅲay have emotional disorder in additiOn, when thcy grow in a bad environment。 Therefore, the care of the mental retardation can be regarded as primarily a socio-educational problem。 Unfortunately, since work with menta1 retardatiOn is such a new fie1d We there are many mistaken beliefs, or fa11aGies which sti11 abound。 leaders in Scouting to say nothing of Scouts, must by all means avoid prejudices and misunderstanding。 Here, I take a short break for a quiz game。 (Quiz I is at Annex I)。 please read the distributed papers and fi11 in blanks with appropriate words。

Further, I shou1d like to add that, as is commonly known, the Internationa1 Year of Disab1ed Persons activity prOgrammes state on a c1ear definition Now, I try to app1y the of "Impairment", "Disability", and "Handicap"。 same defin立 tions to menta1 retardation∶ ImpairInent ca11ed menta1 retardatiOn means a state of incompletc mental deve1OPment due to different causes。

Disabi1ity duc tO mental retardation is the lowering Of competence for 1eading a rcasonab1e standard of persona1 aIld sOcia1 1ife。 3)

Handicap due to menta1 retardation is a disadvantagc of participation in society。

That is to say, the usc of inte11igence is demanding cOnsideral)1y。 On the contrary, in o1d days, a person with a light degre' mental retardation was ranked, without any problem, among norma1 peop1e。 From this standpoint, we Can say the modern sOciety provides uncomfor`able envirOnments for thc mentally retardcd。

The othcr disadvantage is thc distorted human relationship。 The worse the attitude Of people living around the menta11y retarded are, the bigger thc handicap becOmes。 As is already remarked above, because menta1 retardation is an invisib1e handicap, it is often exposed to misunderstanding。 Above all, nOn-handicapped peop1e must endeavour to undcrstand the mentally rctarded apt1y。 T。 achieve this, it is vital tO provide welfare education ~ an education tO promote proper understanding about the handicapped and their welfare - from childhood。

FOr that purpose, nOt tO stay in the lcvOl of intellectual understanding, non-handicappcd pcOple n∶ ay go out to mix with handicapped peop1e or, as

in "Cap-handi Activity" which was Garried out in the 14th World Jamborce in r(orway in 1975, non-handicappcd peoplc may go through expericnces of handicapped pcoPle。 Thcsc activities wi11 do much to educatc thc nonhandicapped pcop1e a practical attitude. DcsrcCs Of Mcnta1 RetardatiOn ○bvious1y, thc incidcncc of the menta11y l`ctarded is high in comparison with those of othcr handicaps。 By a very rough cstimate, thc rate is somewhat 2 and 5 pcr ccnts, Λlso, there arc various degrees of montal retardation. The fOllowing dcgrees are often used for the classificatiOn Of mcntal retardation - mild, moderate, severe, and Profound。 These 1eve1s ref1cct the degrce of difficu1ty a person has in learning and sOcial adaptatiOn.

Mildly Rctarded - A pcrson who is 1imited in his potential for advanGed rcademic achievemcnt, but can usua11y be brought by educatiOnal techniques to a state of sc1f-sufficiency。 Moderate1y Rctardcd - A persOn who shDws a ratc of menta1 deve1opment that is lcss th(1n half Of that norna11y expcctcd, but who can learn to take care Of his personal needs and perform many useful tasks in the home or in a sheltercd wOrkshop situation。 Severe1y Retarded - A person who Can learn self-care, but whose potential for ecOnomic productivity is lilLited。・ ‘ no rcspOnds to training in basic sO1fPrO found1y Retardcd - A pcrsOn 、 care and whO profit s from spcf 1a1 training in such areas as bch(lviora1 cOntrO1, sclf protoction, 1anguage development, and physica1 mObility.

Deve1opmenta1 Task of the Retarded Then, may I focus our study on the Children with the mi1d or moderate degrec of montal retardation and reviow developmental tasks which they should achieVO in reforence with ma,or objectives of teaching。 1)

Building a he巳 1thy body and se:lsory。 motor function。

Human happiness is basod o△ health。 A1soD hoa1th is the bas土 s of various development。 It 土s with a healthy body and a Certain standard of sensoromotor funCtion that wo can e× tend behavioral areas, w土 den experiencos and enriCh lifo itself。 There are many Cases of sensory。 motor malˉ function with menta11y retarded chi1dren。

Therefore, with due consideration to unfavourab1e inf1uences which suGh defectiVe function caus0s on Physical fitness and hea1th, we need to estab1ish deVeloPmental tasks for them。

To accomplish these tasks, important points are, first, to Widen the repartorie of sensory~moto・ r eXperiences, and second1y to give them more oPp° rtunities for training and praCtice。 Also, if circumstances perⅢ it, remedia1 and correctional care should not be neglected for the recovery of fun。 t亠 on, based upon precise nuero1ogical diagnos△ s。

Definitely, physic。 1 educat上 0na】 and work~study are emphasized for a 1°

ng Period from the initial stage of development,

Independence in persona1 11fe。

It is an important task for all mentally retarded children to acquire fundamental habits of liv玉 ng suCh as toi1etting, eating, dressing Normal and undressing, c1eanln∶ g: etC,, at an earliest possible time。 childrcn can accomplish this k三 nd of task without any efforts in their home life and before they reach schoo1 age, while menta11y rotarded chi1dren arO o:ten slow i了 . attainJ∶ ng the self~independence。 In addition, bocause tleir home guidance does not a1ways suffice- such teaching wi11 have to ’ 冫氵 integrated into schoo1 eduCation programΠ les。 To giVe an eXamp1e, a ch二 ld wh。 cannot get rio of the diaperring habit bofore entering school has shor∷ ly oVercome the defect by ADL training at schoc∶ 。 MOst remarkab1e point is that th土 s kind of , tasks in academj~c subjects and that if a task is different fr亻 π proper guidance is g∶ ven, even seriously handicaPPed children can obtain the desired r,su1t。

Social Competency。

Retarded chi1dren have more or 1ess Prob1ems of a socia1 nature。 Particu1ar1y, it is an imPortant task that from the later part of infancy chi1dren can by and by part themse1Ves from home, and 1earn to maintain favourable contaCts in wider social life with many people, including friends, and to keep socia1 behavior accordant to manners and ru1es。 In other words, it is a question of participating in grouP l土 fe, and tasX °f developing sOcial ability。 Λs

the cause of such s1ow development of a socia1 nature, we Ⅲust pu毛 in question the 1ack of positive approaches to the handicappcd from thc peop1e around them, a1though the influence arising from menta】 retardation cannot be neglected。 I11 infancy, the first task is to strengthen a resisting power aga111st people and places outsidc home。 In sChOo1 ages, we must empItasize positive particiPation in play and group activities, and tI】 e exteJlFurthermore in ad1escence, an essential sion of neighbourhood life。 task is to prepare them for so ca11ed sociality, which is to be needed after 1eaving school。 4)

Development of Inte11ectua1 FunCtion。

Menta11y retarded children, due to brain troub1e, have difficulty in the learning of academic subjects, and we have to adm立 t that as a result their inte11ectual develoPment is 1imited to a certain degree。 Contrari1y, It is not to say that inte11ectual training is unnecessary。 △t is a grow△ ng tendancy to Put more emphas△ s on the academ△ c tra△ n△ ng of menta11y retarded children。 Genera11y。 in the process of intellectua1 deve1oPment, the gaining of

ivances to the abstractive concept concret e, intuitive knowledges △‘ 受s format主 on, but in the case of nlenta11y retarded Chi1dren, emphasis At placed specia11y on the training of the intuitive thinking level。 the same time, we must not oveFlook the fact that as a further step the deVe1opment of abstractivc thinking is a1so aimed for, if t11e basic training satisfactori1y progresses。 Co11Crete1y, the accomP1ishment of tasks in this sphere centers oΙ 、 prc-academiC study, name1y, tl1e study of readiness forlllation unti1 the lower grades or the midIle grades o∶ f primary school, because of its degree of menta1 deve1cpment, and when they reach higher grade the substantial acadOmic lcarning becoⅡ es Possible。

Let me further te11 you th:t the future deve1opment of training will promoto cffcGtiveness in the instruction of 】enta11y retarded childrcn and the oeViGes of new instruCtion methods wi11 contribute to the stcP-by-step deve1oPment of inte11igenCe。

Assuming that the afore-mentioned deve1。 pmental tasks are accomp1ished in infancy and childhood, true sOcial participation cannot be assured, unless tasks set forth as a Premise for sOcia1 participation after leaving schoo1 are accomP1ished。 Genera11y, the Concrete goal is set for the mild1y retarded to become vocationally independent, and for the moderately retarded to participate in productive activities in a shcltered environment。 To accomplish such tasks, sufficient guidance based on vocationa1 training is by a11 means needed in and around adolescence。

Nornalization of Leisure Time Activities

If there is a single word that best dcscribes the current dircction of services for the retarded and other disab1ed persons, that w° rd wou1d bc normalization。 The concept of normalization, which it is said originatcd in North Europe, is a philosophy of scrvices that attempts to makc thc 1iVes of retarded and other disabled persons as much like thc lives of everyone else as P° ssible。 As conGerte step to tack1e thc nOrma1ization of the menta11y retarded, the fo11owing two ideas have been wide1y acccptcd。 Onc is deinstitutionalization movement and the othcr is mainstreaming or integrated education in schoo1 cduGation。 The deinstitutionalization movement is the attempt to get as many retarded persons as possible out of the large institutions and back into their home √ Communities, In other 、 ords, it is an effort to turnabout from residential care to community care。 An institution is the 1east normal living environment of a11。 The latter, name1y, the mainstrcaming movement, is in schoOl education in which many retarded and other handicapped chi1dren who in earlier decades would have been p1aced in specia1 schoo1s or c1asscs segregated from the mainstream of educatiOn are now provided with special services in a regu1ar classroom With a11 the other peers of their own age。 Here I should 1ike to add another movement, which is the normalization of leisure time activities。 Recreationa1 and sOcia1 activities in leisure time are lacking in thc 1ives of many retarded Pers° ns, eVen those who Genera11y speaking, both Parents and teachcr function quite independently。 are too much disinterested in the out-of-home and out-of-schoo1 activitieAlso, community organizations which of menta11y retarded children。 provide such opportunities (SC。 uting is one of the host remarkable ∷ organizations) are sti11 insufficient in number and cannOt satisfy potential needs。【 It is a 】 tatter to be rcflected upon that exPerts in education for handicapped children and tlleir parents are only cOnCCrned with the

education whiCh is provided under the name of special education by schoo1s and institutions。

s08/09 SCOUTING FOR THE MENTALLΥ RETARDED 罗istorial

ProsPective

As you know, Extension Scouting has a long history。 DesCription re1ated to the history of Scouting with the handicapped, including mental retardation, is found in the "Scout Movement" written by E。 E。 Re冫 ηolds, from which I quote the following: "A further deVclopment came in 1927 with the organizatiOn of ScOuting as a means of helping boys whO suffered from physica1 or mental defects。 T11e way in this direction has been Pi° neered by the Girl Guides in their Extension branch。 For some years, many Scouts had been visiting thesc unfortunate boys and had donc much tO brighten their livcs。 Doctors found that such visits brought a most marked improvement in the out1ook of the children: they no longer fe1t cut off from the world and they discOvered that there were many things they cou1d do like other boys"。 on the other hand, in B-P’ s "Aids to ScOutmastership", there is a section

of Handicapped Scouts with the mention of crippled, deaf and dumb, and blind boys, but mentally retarde- children are nOt mentioned。 In England, the formation of handicapped Scout groups dated back to 1925, when a Girl Guides grOup was organized for handicaPped girls。 In U。 S。 A。 in 1911, a Kentucky Blind School adoPted Boy Scout a。 tivities for the Pupils and in 1917 an institution for physica11y handicapped girls started Girl Scout activities。 This means the U。 S。 A。 Preceded the Founder|s Country, England。 Interestingly, the lag in the starting year of handicapped Scout groups in U。 S。 A。 and England is similar to that of the fOrmation of institutions for disab1ed persons in U。 S。 A。 and England。 ,

In the U。 S。 A。 , in 1940s, mentally retarded children joined in Scouting。 As ir the history of sPecial eduGation, Scouting for mentally retarded started much later than Scouting for children with other handicaps。 Theη , gradually, the number of countries which adopted Scouting with the handicapPed increased, and in 1958 the number reaChed 30 nations with

ovtlr 1,500 handicapped groups registered。

tentiOn ScOuting came officially intO the Wor1d Scouting scene in 1954 en Advisory Committee on Scouting with the Handicapped was formed in 'he Wor1d ScOut Comnlittce。 Under 1isted are the number of countries, l`hich Prom° tcs EXtension Scouting a】 ld the number of handicapped Scouts by four types of disabiliti。 s∶ E∷

the chart shows, less than half of the listed nations conducts Scouting for the mentally retardedD the number being much less than the Considerone with SGouting for blind, deaf and physically handicapped。 ing that mentally retarded are most prolific, as stated in thc incidencc, we cou1d bring more mentally retarded chi1dren into Scouting。 Scouting Fits the Menta11y Retarded

A number of cascs have proved that Scouting is usefu1 tO the training °f menta11y retarded children。 It is because Scout Programmes fit menta11y reta∵ ded ChildrOn。 The following three reasOns can be stated: The princip1es of ScOuting conforn to those of 1earning fOr menta11y retarded chi1dren。 That is to say, Scout Programmes based upOn "learning by doing" in active, practica1 and living situations match the Characteristics of 1earning for menta11y retarded chi1dren。 Scouting allows morc room for menta11y retarded chi1drcn tO participate than school education。 school educatiOn revolves on the axis of academic training, which requires a fu11 use of inte11igence, and low-inte11igent children find it difficult to adjust themsc1ves to it。 On the other hand, scouting provides practica1 or real exPericnces in its training with a wide variety of activities such as meetings, serVice actiVities, hiking and camp△ ng, △n whi99・ l ‘ ~~彐

Sc° ut gr° uPs usually show understanding toward menta11y children。 In any scout group, which faithfu11y, fo11ow

Type B and C can best formed by scouts of the same handicap, for example, by on1y mentally retarded boys9 °r by mixing different handicaps intentiona11y, e。 g。 , a mixed group °f b1ind and deaf Scouts。 2)

Integrating as Guest or Visitor

In recent years, we in Japan enthusiastica11y promote the scheme of inviting menta11y retarded chi1dren to Scout gatherings and events on trooP, district and prefectura1 1evel。 As an example of this invitation scheme, I can name "Invitation as Scout For-a-day"9 "InVitation to Scout Caηp", "Invitat主 on to Family Camp", etc。 On these occasions, handicapped children are motivated to join Scouting。

"One of US" movement, in which the Swedish Scout Association provides

handicaPped SG° uts with an opportunity to take Part in Scout Camp, is worth a remarkable notice as one of the tacklings to aim for such effects。

0n the other handD norma1 Scouts shou1d be encouraged to Visit institutions and hostels, for menta11y retarded children, to Play t° gether (e g. recreational activities) and to work together for service aCtivities (e。

g。

making a flower-bed)。

WORKSHOp II1 (Discussi° n on the Mentally Retarded)

summary of Discussion Groups| Findings As regards extending ScOuting to the more severely handicapped ones, △t is cons△ dered that it is n° t always necessary for the severely menta11y retarded

(a)

to wear Scout uniform and be invested as scouts。 A special club may be formed to organize activity onCe a month for these boys (b〕

a boy must understand the SCout Law and Promise before he is △nvested into the MOvement

(c)

although the severely mentally retarded may not rea11y understand the Scout Law and Promise as the norma1 boys do, we sti11 can accept them in ScOuting activities。 The mild1y retarded who understand the Scout Law and Promise can be invested as Scouts

(d)

there is a need to 1et the pub1ic know about extension Scouting and to develop a specia1 training programme for 1eaders。 It is a1so noted that 亠 (i)

(ii)

(iii)

s° me

cOuntries do not have records in respect of the number of menta11y retarded, and the severe1y handicapped therein are usua11y in institutions。 No Scouting is being provided for these peop1e some countries classify the mentally retarded into various grades according to the1r degree of sever△ ty and put them in the respective grades of specia1 schools thereapeutic swimming has been found extremely suCcessfu1 in training of menta11y retarded Chi1dren

(iv)

it is hard to recruit 1eaders for these SCouts。 When teachers are used, the extra t△ me used in conduGting SCouting act△ v△ t△ es △s a stra△ n on them and it tends to be just an extension of teaching

(v)

there is no training on extension SCouting in the Wood Badge System

The ways we can help non-handicapped boys understand the menta11y retarded are (a)

t° inf。 rm

the non-handicapped Scouts that the retarded are eligible to be Scouts

(b)

to ° rganize joint activities and to provide opportunity for them to mix, feel, and get in touch with one another

(c)

to ask the non-handicapped scouts to Perform service to the retarded

(d)

to pr° duce pamphlets on extension Scouting

(e)

to arrange Visits to the retarded for the Parents who do not like their children to mix with the retarded boys so as to let them realize the good turn their chi1dren are doing

f g

to let them work in pairs to use film such as the one shown in the Seminar as a starting po△ nt to encOurage then to try the △dea

As regards the concrete ways for the menta11y retarded Scouts to work with the non-handicapped Scouts, it is considered that to achieve this aim, the Scout 1eader’ s understanding of his ro1e and task is Very important。

Put uP a chart in the unit to show indiVidua1 Progress

- to sub-divide the badge syllabus into various stages, and to give one sma11 badge to him after completing one stage ˉ to
