Disabled Mothers by Dena Taylor Book PDF Summary
This collection of 18 scholarly works and personal accounts from Canada, the U.S., and Australia explores and analyses issues of parenting by mothers with a variety of physical and mental disabilities. The book delves into pregnancy, birth, adoption, child custody, discrimination, and disability politics. Noticing dominant ideas, meanings, and narratives about mothering and disability, as the contributors of this book do, exposes how the actual lives and experiences of mothers with disabilities are key to challenging cultural norms and therefore discrimination.
