Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research was to understand the current situation of independent living of people with disabilities in the community and also their parents' child-rearing process in Japan from the gender perspective. It was conducted by interviews toward their parents. Research findings are as follows. First, mothers devoted their whole life as care givers, because of shameful feeling concerning having their children with disabilities. In other hands, many fathers did not involve in the rearing of their children with disabilities, because of gender-role stereotyping in the society. Eventually, even if being grown ups, it makes children with disabilities be dependent because of treating as a child. Second, others who support them to take care of their children might change this unsociable intimate mother-child relationship and they have the chance to coach the independent living of people with disabilities in the community. Third, both mothers and fathers need accept the concept of independent living to promote the number of people with disabilities who live independent living of in the community.
