Abstract

This study explores how disability acceptance in Asian society through a literature review approach based on cultural and philosophical perspectives. This article reviews 17 research journal articles spread from various countries including Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Brunei Darussalam. This article finds that disability acceptance is not only shaped by the legal system, but also heavily influenced by local norms, culture, religion and even language. These findings highlight how the stigma of disability is persistent in a belief in karma, a culture of shame and a meritocratic ideals that make acceptance of disability conditional. The research articles were reviewed using the help of NVIVO 12 software to conduct thematic analysis, by identifying themes based on sociocultural, religious and philosophical that shape the acceptance of disability in the societies of various countries in Asia. This article also found that the model of social acceptance for people with disabilities has shifted, from a paternalistic to a humanistic model that focuses on the dignity and diversity of the human body. This article contributes to inclusive issues in society by offering the importance of culture, policy and also community in encouraging disability acceptance.

Abstract

Raising children with disabilities presents complex challenges that affect multiple aspects of family life. However, previous studies indicate that disability acceptance may serve as a protective factor for family resilience and quality of life in navigating these challenges. This study aims to explore the meaning of disability acceptance among parents of children with disabilities in Indonesia. A qualitative approach using a phenomenological design was employed, and data were analyze using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with three parents in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, who were selected through purposive sampling. The findings identified six stages of acceptance, namely shock, denial, guilt, depression, rational acceptance, and spiritual acceptance. In addition, five superordinate themes describing the meaning of disability acceptance were generated: (1) transformation of meaning from a burden to a source of happiness, (2) acceptance as a repetitive and non-linear process, (3) adjustment of expectations and future planning based on the child’s potential, (4) acceptance grounded in moral values and unconditional love, and (5) spiritual acceptance as a form of surrender to destiny and life challenges. These findings indicate that disability acceptance is not only an emotional process but also a meaning-making construction influenced by personal values, family relationships, and spiritual beliefs. The study highlights the importance of culturally and spiritually sensitive support in facilitating parents’ disability acceptance processes.
