BACKGROUND: It is predicted that over the next 30 years, there will be a
significant increase in the number of elderly parents who care for their children
with intellectual disability. This paper is part of a larger qualitative study
which investigated the unpleasant experiences of these parents. MATERIALS AND
METHODS: A phenomenological approach was adopted and data were collected through
unstructured in-depth interviews with elderly parents of children with
intellectual disability. The data were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step
method. RESULTS: "Bitterness" is one of the four emergent themes extracted in
this study which has five theme clusters: inappropriate behavior toward the child
in the society, the society's failure to support the child with intellectual
disability, sorrows experienced by parents, the child's problems, and barriers in
the care of the child with intellectual disability. One significant barrier in
the last theme cluster is limitations due to aging. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of
this study suggest that the elderly parents of children with intellectual
disability experience many sorrows and unpleasant feelings, but they mostly
consider the social factors as the cause of problems and not the presence of the
child. The results also indicate that older parents cannot look after the child
as before in their old age; so, future well-designed studies are required for
identification of the process of supporting them.
