Parenting can be a challenge for us all, but when a child has disabilities, a further set of complex challenges are added to the parenting role. We sat down with our parent advocate Marian Bradley whose daughter Meabh has lived with severe disabilities from birth.
It was deeply moving to discuss the achievements and challenges of Marian's parenting journey. We got to ask her some questions that some people may be too afraid to ask. We really hope this rich conversation helps you on your journey as a parent.
