The aim of this research was to clarify how to raise children with a tendency of developmental disabilities without lowering self-affirmation. We conducted an interview research subjecting parents with children with a tendency of developmental disabilities and nursery teachers. The subject of this research was 42 parents who have children with a tendency of developmental disabilities between the age of 4 to 10, and 26 nursery teachers who have children with a tendency of developmental disabilities in their class. Large factors in lowering their self-affirmation were not to praise the child, keep scolding at them, and not having the experience of success where children feel like they accomplished something. It was verified that in order to enhance the children s self-affirmation, it is important to have smaller goals and change the method in the way that the child can do according to the child s developmental level rather than the standardized level of development. In other words, it can be said that it is important for parents to set up the environment where children feel like they can do it, praise the child if they succeed even a little, and the child can visually verify their success.
