Abstract :
Mothering is a major developmental event in women’s life. It is not necessary for mothers to be perfect and flawless, but it is required to play the role of mothering satisfactorily.1 If mothering occurs with a disability, it will be more challenging. Some studies reported that mothers with blindness face limitations in meeting their children’swillings and social needs.2,3 Some training programs such as rehabilitation are needed for blind mothers, but these programs are not conducted in Iran.
