This book reports on the first substantial UK study of parenting, disability and mental health, which examines the views of parents and children in 75 families. Covering a range of issues facing disabled parents and their families, the book: provides a comprehensive review of relevant policy issues; explores the barriers to full participation in parenting that disabled parents face; examines the complex ways in which broader social divisions, including gender and socioeconomic status, interact with disability; and advocates measures to support disabled parents and their families by promoting and supporting relationships within the family.
