Hearing loss has an impact on different aspects of life. Deaf and hard-of-hearing parents are considered a part of parents with disabilities group. Some of the parenting challenges they both faces are similar, but some difficulties and challenges are unique only for deaf and hard-of-hearing parents. Therefore, this thesis aims to give insight into the challenges of parenting of people with hearing loss and review previous research. For a long time, parenting of deaf and hard-of-hearing parents was viewed negatively. Authors were writing about those parents from the clinical perspective and researches were taking a pathological perspective. Due to the fact that most individuals with hearing loss are born to hearing parents, many deaf and hard-of-hearing people share similar childhood experiences. New findings showed that a child’s hearing status has a significant impact on the challenges of parenting among deaf and hard-of-hearing parents. Therefore, the challenges of parenting have to be viewed separately for deaf and hard-of-hearing parents with hearing children and for deaf and hard-of-hearing parents who raise deaf children. An important research topic concerning families with deaf and hard-of-hearing parents is communication, which is related to parental success and overall family functioning. An issue involving interpreting is a topic that is often mentioned by parents with hearing loss who raise hearing children. On the other hand, deaf and hard of hearing parents state their views on cochlear implementation. Finally, this thesis will discuss how previous knowledge and research findings about parenting of people with hearing loss can be implemented into the clinical work of professionals who work with parents and their families.
