Question of the Day: Holiday programs

School holiday programs: Delightful or disastrous? Sometimes the disruption of rehearsals and enforced standing and behavioral expectations and too much music can put a special-needs child into stress overload, rendering the holidays even more unmanageable. And sometimes seeing your child on stage with his or her mainstream peers, singing and dancing like any other rosy-cheeked cherub, makes it all worthwhile.
