Abstract
The results of this study indicated that: (a) the difference between the expectations of mothers and fathers of LD youth was generally insignificant in most areas of achievement, (b) in most areas of achievement, school staff members' expectations were found to be insignificantly different from each other. (c) in most areas of achievement, school staff members' expectations were significantly lower for LD children than their parents, and (d) the child's birth order had a significant effect upon parental expectations for future achievement. Significant differences were found between parents in the areas of Total Achievement Potential and Social-Personal Adequacy. No significant differences were found in parental expectations in the Academic Adequacy and Economic Adequacy areas.
