This paper draws from dissertation research on a pedagogy for the privileged: research that involves transformative …

Approximately 10% of American children experience an emotional or behavioral disorder that causes some level of impairment in their development, learning, or functioning in daily life, and the numbers of those affected appear to be growing (U.S. Public Health Service, 2000).
