Dear Claudia, I'm not sure if you were asking for refs on hierarchies of
disability or regarding mothers but other people had asked me to pass on any
hierarchi refs I got, so I thought I'd just send this to the whole list.

Subject: Request for help
I am beginning to develop a research proposal relating to interviewing
mothers with disabilities about their experiences of censure, intervention,
surveillance, success in spite of the preceding, social support, joys, etc.
In the proposal, I argue that it is important to include mothers with a wide
range of disabilities, in part because of the different needs for support
and services that may arise from various impairments. I also understand
that, both in med/psy/helping professions, and within disability advocacy
and support groups, there are some who claim that hierarchies of disability
exist, where some groups of individuals (in particular, those with cognitive
impairments) have been more marginalized. Can anyone help me out here with
references, please? Or comments?
Thanks,
