Parenting carries its natural challenges, from early sleep deprivation to the constant tension of leading and guiding a child as they grow up. But what happens when a child needs special care for decades? When circumstances beyond their control make parenting vastly different than they would have guessed? “Parenting a Child Who is Profoundly Other” is a reflection by Amy Julia Becker that reminds us of the daily challenge and experience of these long-term caregiving parents. As believers, we are called to love our neighbors, and there is a tremendous opportunity to do so when we support parents of kids with special needs. How will we advocate for, encourage, and walk alongside these families? To live out our faith is to make sure everyone is loved well.
