Navigating the joys, stigma, and discrimination of disabled parenting-and how the solutions offered by disability culture can transform the way we all raise our kids
In Unfit Parent, Slice debunks the exclusionary myths that deem disabled people "unfit" to care for their children, instead showing how disabled parents and disability culture provide valuable lessons for rejecting societal rules that encourage perfectionism and lead to isolation.
Combining her personal experiences with interviews, research-backed evidence, and disability studies, Slice shares insight into what the landscape is like for disabled parents-one that is scattered with unpredictable obstacles and inaccessible barriers. In overcoming these challenges, she describes how disabled parents are oftentimes more prepared to adapt to the demanding nature of parenthood, including the uncertainty of losing control over bodily autonomy.
Uplifting and powerful, Unfit Parent illuminates how disabled bodies and minds give us the hopeful perspectives and solutions we need for transforming a societal system that has left parents exhausted, stuck, and alone.
From a Newbery Medal-winning author comes a deeply moving ode to the complexity and uniqueness of every child.

Here's a profound and uplifting new classic with an empowering message for listeners of all ages: Your story is still being written.
