The work is a qualitative research and is based upon semistructured interviews. These have been done with ten parents separately, eight persons who were interviewed were parenting couples. To get a theoretic support of the material in the analysis, we have chosen to use three theories. Two of them are sociological and one is psycological. The conclusion of this work is that parents of children with a diagnosis within the autismspectra have a great will to be able to confront and to support their children in a good way. The parents say that when the children got a diagnosis, it became a platform in the searching for knowledge about the children’s functional disability. (Less)
