I should probably qualify that I'm strictly talking about helicopter parenting (e.g. arguing with the daydreaming kid because they won't stick to a packed strict schedule). Special needs are, as the name says, special needs.
In Australia, the (reported) rate of Autism in the general population is 0.7%. That's pretty huge, over 170,000 people. That's Autism alone.
My daughter for example has Type 1 Diabetes. It's much rarer than Autism. However, when you start adding all these up, it's significant.
