This is to examine how mentally retarded people develop their ability after they have taken employment. These are taken from the guidance process at the Aftercare Center, Hyuga Kosai Gakuen. 1. Development of self realization and expansion of ability to live in community life. When our retarded people take employment they should be able to join in the groups by themselves, alse when necessary to undertake some actions they try to do it according to their own understanding. But after three months of employment, all of them somehow begin to show development of self-realization. This great development was not shown during the period of the institution. So it must be helpful to develop their ability by joining in as members of the society. Also all of them have shown great expansion of ability to live in a community life. Main causes of expansion: 1) Their needs were changing according to the situation 2) Facing the realities of life made learning effective 3) Labor and earning money together gave the chance to learn the value of life 4) They developed a sense of pride in becoming a member of society You can see how much difference exists in the leading process between the Institution and real life in society 2, The guidance process of economic life mentally retarded people must be taught an understanding of economic life if they are to lead a truly independent life. If a man gets a job and doesn't know how to spend his earnings in every day life in society, that job cannot be called work but rather play. Unless the man realizes the use of his earnings, there will be no willingness to work. It's very important to teach the worth of his job. Some examples of concrete guidance 1) to give an understanding of salary 2) to guide the spending of salary 3) to instruct the managing of cash 4) to motivate willingness to work Conclusion It is a very difficult task to help mentally retarded people to have a completely independent life, yet all of them are hoping to get jobs outside instead of living in the institution. Many cases, as stated above showed that they could not get further development in the institution. Yet they expanded their ability in many ways and blossomed out in society. Of course they need someone's help and support and with this we know they can continue to adjust their ability for living in society. Meanwhile we, the leaders, must seek this guidance process for the improvement of mentally retarded people.
