Nesen, J.N, Bakar, A.Y.A

The COVID-19 plague has been an open threat to the physical wellbeing and life of people. It has also caused a broad spectrum of psychological symptoms, such as panic, stress and discouragement. Over the time span, pressure, nervousness and other unpleasant feelings began to escalate in the nation and disperse and replicate themselves instantly among individuals from the whole of society. As a result of COVID-19, households' socio-economic condition and the treatment of children with special needs were impacted. This condition will also shake the tension level of childcare givers with special educational needs. Coping strategies are explicit physical and emotional activities that individuals use to ascertain, tolerate, minimize or restrict annoying opportunities. The study has shown that families who are productive in adjusting to an unusual child will plan their inner and outer responses to handle their special needs better. In this study, data is collected from Malaysia on parents whether they spent quality times with their kids or not. Also, analysis of the captured data is done using ANOVA.
