The physically challenged children are frequently characterized by extremes of behaviors, which in some cases influence the interactions they have with parents and siblings. The extra care and special accommodations are required by them. Parenting is the job with no preparations and vacations. Children with disabilities have special needs that require more attention, greater vigilance and effort from parents than nondisabled children. Though the presence of a physically challenged child need not create a family crisis, the stigma of disability imposed by the society can be offending to the parents and the family. Disability in a child provokes a series of disequilibrium among the parents in their psychological aspects which directly or indirectly affect them in various social and psychological well beings. Parents show a series of reactions after knowing that their child is disabled and they start showing the guilt, sorrow, denial, anger, which affects different parents differently, so that these sort of stressors leads the parents to physical and mental health problem. There is abundant evidence that parents of disabled children undergo more than average amount of stress. Parents of disabled children have very high level of parenting stress signifying that they perceived for more stress in their role as parents than did parents of children without disabilities. The nature of stress has been shown to span over several aspects of family life such as daily care demands, emotional distress, interpersonal difficulties, financial problems and adverse social consequences. Psychosocial issues of parents and children with disabilities can be very traumatic for most parents. The parents of the child with disability need to be stronger, adaptive, and optimistic and have a huge sense of humour. They have to be "special" for the special child. The special counselling and guidance is required for the parents suffering with physical and mental health problem. The extreme problemKeywords

The 21st century is an era of technological revolution. Due to the technology, the environment of today is changing as never before. Adolescents of today are well and easily exposed to vast, unlimited and most importantly censored information and are subject to high pressure because of ever increasing competition and expectations from their family and peers. The aim of present study is to examine and compare various dimensions of general well-being and emotional maturity among adolescents. The present study carried out one hundred adolescents (50 boys and 50 girls) with age range of 15-19 years. For purpose of data collection general well-being scale (Kalia&Deswal, 2011) and emotional maturity scale (Pal, 1986) was used. There are significant difference on PWB and EWB dimension of GWB between boys and girls. Findings also highlights that girls are more emotionally unstable as compare to boys. The gender difference can be attributed to the variations in socialization process of both genders than to the inherent genetic character. All people are equal, but not the same. Study recommended that parents, teachers and other responsible society members should ensure that gender bias does not exist in home, school and society. School management should organize personality development programs from time to time that help adolescents emotionally mature.Keywords
