Parents who have learning difficulties pose profound questions to the philosophy and practice of family nursing. Failure to recognise how care delivery needs to change in the context of parents with a learning disability can perpetuate discrimination and inequalities for adults and their children. In this paper we explore the neglected topic of adults who have learning disabilities and the problems they face when they become parents. We examine the issue of the rights of adults with learning disabilities and illustrate that when these rights are not upheld they increase the vulnerability of the adults and their children. The implications of these issues are highlighted in the context of children's nursing practice.
有学习困难的父母给家庭护理的理念和实践提出了深刻的问题。未能认识到在有学习障碍的父母的背景下护理方式需要如何改变,可能会使针对成年人及其子女的歧视和不平等长期存在。在本文中,我们探讨了被忽视的有学习障碍的成年人这一话题,以及他们成为父母后面临的问题。我们审视了有学习障碍的成年人的权利问题,并表明当这些权利得不到维护时,会增加成年人及其子女的脆弱性。在儿童护理实践的背景下,这些问题的影响得到了突出强调。
