Abstract	Nowadays, the important role of the family in the treatment and the integration of their children with disability is widely recognized. Many studies of the specialized literature uphold the need for parental involvement and similar recommendations come from international bodies, such as the World Health Organization, and from laws on disability that have been issued in a number of nations (WHO, 2001; Luckasson et al., 2002; Nota & Soresi, 2004; Soresi & Nota, 2004; Soresi, Nota, & Wehmeyer, 2011).
