Participant agreement with information sheet statements. Respondents rated their agreement with the following statements on the information sheet. When respondents did not agree with a statement, they provided open-ended responses about what they disagreed with or what they were questioning. The phrasing of the statements varied between information sheet versions and participant type; statements on the last survey version for parents/caregivers are listed here. All survey versions are available in Section S2. Note: Statements included on the information sheet varied slightly by participant type; survivors were not asked Statement 5 on this graph about supports.

Statement 1: Therapy can help your child learn and grow with things like:

• Moving (walking, climbing), doing things on their own, talking;

• Getting stronger, having more energy;

Statement 2: Even though therapy may be hard sometimes, therapy can also be fun, help your child believe in themselves, and improve your child’s mood.

Statement 3: It may feel like there is no right time to start therapy. Starting therapy as soon as you are able can help your child in the long run.

Statement 4: Since cancer is rare among children, some people may not be aware of the unique needs of children with cancer.

Statement 5: It helps if your therapist knows what to expect with the ups and downs of cancer treatment.

Statement 6: Therapy may not always be the most important thing for you and your child.
