Parents often make changes in their social and family life to accommodate their child, as caring for a disabled child can make parenting complex and a heavier duty. Around one-quarter of parents of children with disabilities reported that the role affected their social life with 30.8% reporting they have completely lost contact with friends, relatives, or extended family. Additionally, lower couple satisfaction was reported among these parents, with 21.2% reporting their relationship was strained, and 23.3% stating they lacked alone time together. Caring for a child with disability also often results in financial hardship due to increased expenses and decreased income—35.3% of parents reported an increase in their living expenses and 45.5% reported decreased labor force participation to take on their caring role. 36.3% of them reported decreased household income. These factors can lead to grief, isolation, stress, and eventually, mental health issues such as depression or anxiety.
