Parenting a child with disability: A mother's reflection on the significance of social support.
This paper is a reflection on my experiences. Here, I reflect on the significance of social support groups as a mother of a child with disabilities. I share my experiences of how I was empowered by the social support of mothers of children with disabilities, with the intention that these experiences will assist other mothers in a rural context. I relate my personal positive experiences of how collaborating with other mothers in the support groups enabled me to be a better parent to my child. This paper presents the significance of coming together as mothers of children with disabilities in a rural setting. I reflect on the implications of raising a child with a disability without social support, and how I overcame those challenges after joining the social support group for mothers of children with disabilities.
期刊介绍:
The African Journal of Disability, the official journal of CRS, AfriNEAD and CEDRES, introduce and discuss issues and experiences relating to and supporting the act of better understanding the interfaces between disability, poverty and practices of exclusion and marginalisation. Its articles yield new insight into established human development practices, evaluate new educational techniques and disability research, examine current cultural and social discrimination, and bring serious critical analysis to bear on problems shared across the African continent. Emphasis is on all aspects of disability particularity in the developing African context. This includes, amongst others: -disability studies as an emerging field of public health enquiry -rehabilitation, including vocational and community-based rehabilitation -community development and medical issues related to disability and poverty -disability-related stigma and discrimination -inclusive education -legal, policy, human rights and advocacy issues related to disability -the role of arts and media in relation to disability -disability as part of global Sustainable Development Goals transformation agendas -disability and postcolonial issues -globalisation and cultural change in relation to disability -environmental and climate-related issues linked to disability -disability, diversity and intersections of identity -disability and the promotion of human development.
