PURPOSE: To estimate the relationships between the child, parents, and family factors and parent stress and QoL among parents of children with diplegic CP.

HYPOTHESES: There is no relation between the level of functional impairment among children with diplegic CP and their parental stress and QOL. RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there a relationship between the level of functional impairment among children with diplegic CP and the degree of their parental stress and quality of life?
