It had no obvious economic burden to the family, with the balance of output to fee of day care and input from more free time to be used to make money. Families thought it neccessary of combination of rehabilitation and day care for special education, except for those children too small or too easy to catch diseases. The suggestions from parents included insufficient space of day center and rehabilitation area, the timing of day care duration being not facilitated to parents. The parents were worry about further education source of school age and the care problems of the retarded children after parents die.
