AB - Leisure can be understood and studied by analysing personal, social, and cultural roles in the modern society in that it fulfills an individual's basic right of self-achievement. While parents of special children share the same interest towards leisure, they are unable to actively take part in leisure activities due to various barriers. However, the benefits of leisure are highly needed for parents of special children who struggle with the challenges of raising children with physical and other disabilities. Data for this study was collected through in depth interviews and participant observation of ten parents of special children and was later analyzed based on using a grounded theory approach (Strauss and Glaser) documenting the experiences of parents of children with disabilities. Study results showed that parents of special children showed a consistent pattern of change from a phase where they had no time to even think about leisure to a stable phase of leisure activity participation. In this process, the parent's acceptance of their child's disability was shown to have the closest relation with their leisure. Based on the relation between the participant and such affecting factors, the parents could be categorized into those who suppressed their leisure, those who compromised, and those in the stable phase.
