Parenting can be laden with the guilt of not being able to give our kids a picture perfect life. As a disabled parent with limited energy, financial resources, and/or mobility this guilt can be compounded.

In this episode, Bonni discusses the various benefits to children being raised by a chronically ill or disabled parent.
