Loneliness & Disability Parenting

As dads of children with disabilities, one of the hardest truths we need to face is the isolation and loneliness that comes with the territory of parenting a child with a disability. In many ways your life as a disability parent may mirror your child’s own experiences, such as less friends, less places you go, more social anxiety, more reasons to stick to routine. In this episode I confront the difficult reality of loneliness as a disability dad and share my perspective in the hope you can relate and it validates what’s going on in your reality as you are doing your best.
