Abstract

Objective: The life situation of women with disabilities is complex and full of attitudinal, social and economic barriers to their socio-psychological well-being. Now, if these women are also mothers, there will certainly be consequences for the children of such mothers. Therefore, the aim of this study was to understand the lived experiences of girls who had a mother with a physical and mental disability. Method: The method of the present study was qualitatively phenomenological. The study sample consisted of 11 girls with a mean age of 20.5 years who had a mother with physical and mental disabilities and were selected by purposive and snowball sampling. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, then implemented verbatim and analyzed by Smith and Osborne interpretive phenomenology. Results: In this study, 4 main themes were identified: coping with maternal disability, feeling of maternal emptiness, perceiving differences in family structure and personal challenges created for the child. Some of the main themes included subsets. Conclusion: According to the findings, it can be said that the lives of girls have been affected by the mother's disability and it is necessary to provide a support system for families who face such problems.
