Chinese fathers of children with intellectual disabilities: their perceptions of the child, family functioning, and their own needs for emotional support

Xiaoyi Hu

Summary: As evidence supports family-centered approaches to disability services, parents' experiences raising children with disabilities have gained increasing international attention. However, existing literature on parents of children with disabilities tends to focus on mothers as the primary research subjects. To address this research gap, the author surveyed over 4500 fathers of children with disabilities in Mainland China. The results suggest that fathers tend to believe their children with intellectual disabilities are more difficult to raise and perceive their family functioning as somewhat problematic. The research also found that fathers are generally reluctant to seek emotional support from sources outside their families, although Han fathers and those with higher educational backgrounds are more likely to seek support.
