Children develop attitudes by being exposed to, and adopting, the attitudes of their
parents (katz & Chamiel, 1989).
Parents’ attitudes and behavior influence their children’s, which is then carried over
into later life (Holden, 1995). This theory indicates that parents who do not support
inclusive education might negatively influence the formation of their child’s attitudes
and behavior.
Parental support and involvement, moreover, is regarded as being greatly important
in facilitating inclusive education ( palmer, Fuller, Arora & Nelson, 2001).
For effective implementation of inclusion both groups of parents of children with and
without disabilities to have positive and supportive attitude towards inclusive
education.
