Studying To Be Perdistric Physical Therapist

Hi, I am studying to be a pediatric physical therapist and that as you would think includes a lot of learning how to communicate with children/young adults who don't communicate in the way most of us do. It would help me out so much to be able to meet and help kids from all different backgrounds!!
