Summary/Abstract: There is a dearth of research on parenting performed by people with intellectual disabilities focused on fathers.There is a dearth of research on parenting performed by people with intellectual disabilities focused on fathers. This report presents the results of a study aimed at understanding the perception of fathers with intellectual disabilities from the perspective of their female partners. The research was embedded in an interpretative paradigm, thus interpretive phenomenological analysis was used. Seven women, whose partners and fathers of their children were men diagnosed with intellectual disability, took part in semi-structured interviews. In the process of the analysis, three overarching themes were identified: (1) intellectual disability of partners, (2) barriers to a successful relationship and fatherhood, and (3) factors contributing to success in the relationship and fulfillment by partners as fathers.
