When a child has a chronic illness, it is readily apparent that the family and school must enter into a partnership to assure that the educational needs of the child are being met. A family-school partnership, however, may also be important to address the needs of siblings of children with chronic illness. Siblings of children with diseases such as cancer are often highly distressed and may experience decrements in academic achievement within 2 years of diagnosis. Teachers and classroom peers may be a valuable source of support to these children. This manuscript documents the mental health needs of siblings of children with cancer, describes their perceptions regarding amount of social support received and importance of social support across home and school sources, and reveals important associations between social support and more positive emotional, behavioral, and academic functioning. These findings suggest that family-school partnerships may be valuable to address the mental health needs of siblings of children with cancer.
当一个孩子患有慢性病时，很明显家庭和学校必须建立伙伴关系，以确保孩子的教育需求得到满足。然而，家庭与学校之间的伙伴关系对于满足慢性病患儿兄弟姐妹的需求也可能很重要。患有癌症等疾病的孩子的兄弟姐妹往往极度痛苦，并且在确诊后的两年内学业成绩可能会下降。教师和班级同学可能是这些孩子宝贵的支持来源。本手稿记录了癌症患儿兄弟姐妹的心理健康需求，描述了他们对所获得的社会支持数量的看法以及家庭和学校来源的社会支持的重要性，并揭示了社会支持与更积极的情绪、行为和学业功能之间的重要关联。这些发现表明，家庭与学校之间的伙伴关系对于满足癌症患儿兄弟姐妹的心理健康需求可能很有价值。
