Now Playing: Alternative education changes lives of disabled children (5:04)
Source: Close Up
A special type of education has given two children a chance to live fuller lives.

By chance, their parents discovered conductive education, a non-conventional alternative to what is traditionally available.
It is intensive and hugely time consuming but Close Up met two parents who thank their lucky stars they've had the choice.
