Children are considered exceptional, when they have some characteristics that deviate from the normal or average child. Exceptional children deviate from the average children to the extent that they are unable to receive classroom instruction in regular schools. The word 'exceptional' conveys different meanings to different people. Some use it to refer to a bright child or a child with unusual talent. Others use it to refer to any typical or deviant child. Exceptional children are classified into various categories for the purpose of placement and educational care. The present investigation has given emphasis to two categories, viz., emotionally disturbed children and socially disadvantaged children, which come under the category of exceptional children. These children need parental and family support.
