The process of adaptation to the role of a parent of a child with Down Syndrome is very difficult, multi-staged and stress-causing both for mothers and fathers (Będkowska-Heine, 2003; Kościelska, 1998; Liberska and Matuszewska, 2011; Żyta, 2004). Coping with parental stress is a constant challenge for mothers and fathers of a child with Down syndrome and it increases the significance of different types of social support. The choice of the coping strategy can improve the parents’ cognitive abilities and competences of emotional and behavioural control and it also facilitates a more positive assessment of their intellectually disabled child (Turnbull et al., 1993). If parents choose a more adaptive, problem-focused coping strategy, adaptation to the parental role proceeds more fluently and more adequately (Abery, 2006; Lackaye and Margalit, 2006; Van Riper, 2003). In addition, it has been proven that receiving social support and using accommodative coping styles may boost the process of adaptation to the role of a parent of a child with Down syndrome (Atkinson et al., 1995; Dunst, Trivette and Deal, 1988; Florian, Krulik, 1991; Friedrich, Wilturner and Cohen, 1985; Lam and Mackenie, 2002; Sullivan, 2002; Van Riper, 1999).

Early intervention concerns a child who is threatened with disability or is disabled and the child's parents. In the situation of early intervention two key elements should be noticed, i.e. the child's early age and a comprehensive character of the actions. Special care of specialists, like the family doctor, pediatrician, neurologist, should be given to children belonging to the so called “risk groups”. Often it is on the first visit to the specialist that the further life of the child and the use of his developmental capacities depends. Including both the child and his parents in the support program in the earliest period after the developmental problems appear gives the child a chance to use his capacities as well as possible, and his parents a chance to effectively cope with the problems connected with the child's threatened development.
