Well since you can clearly tell by glancing at the child that you don't know at all that he/she is "emotionally and intellectually healthy" perhaps their parent is actually doing something okay after all? One of my pet peeves - making judgments on whether or not a child that you do not even know and look at for a mere few minutes is "emotionally and intellectually healthy" and making judgments as to what that child's needs are. Someone could see me writing/scribing for my child and be appalled - you can't tell by looking at him that he has EDS and dysgraphia. Just something to keep in mind about being "appalled"
