Separating a child’s disability from a parents identity: Featuring Wes of Disabledland

When parents have children with disabilities it can be challenging to figure out what your identity is. Oftentimes, sometimes unintentionally, parents tend to take on their child's disability as their own identity. This, however, can not only be detrimental to the family and child, but it can also be detrimental to the disabled community. In this episode on The Bitching and Bolusing Podcast we sit down with Wes from Wes of Disabledland and discuss some hard hitting, sometimes uncomfortable topics and insights. Wes offers us his views on how there should be a shift within the parenting community that could better empower the disabled community, and how both communities are not one in the same.    Please be sure to visit Disabledland Shops!
