Children & Society, v15 n3 p158-69 Jun 2001

Compared child care knowledge of United Kingdom 14- to 16- year-olds with and without learning difficulties. Found that knowledge of basic parenting and child care depended on type of school attended, reading ability of special school students, and provision of health education by the special school nurse. Found no associations between knowledge and student gender, family position, or family size. (Author/KB)
