In nine poignant essays, from nine varied perspectives, Accessing Parenthood confronts how disability changes the act of parenting.

The essayists write of pushing their bodies to keep up with their children, of coming to understand their parents' disabilities, or of grappling with the decision to have children at all. These essays examine the universally heart-wrenching challenges of watching your children grow up, worried that you'll ruin them, as well as barriers unique to the experience of parenting with a disability.
