However, there is an insufficient knowledge on the potential impact of parenting a child with Down syndrome on parents\u2019 everyday practices. We aimed to address this gap by exploring the experienced everyday practices of parents in families where a child has Down syndrome. Taking a qualitative approach, we conducted semi\u2010structured interviews with 25 parents of children with Down syndrome aged 4\u201312\u00a0years. Using reflexive thematic analysis, we identified two themes concerned with the parents\u2019 practice. The first, \u2018Supporting our child\u2019, describes how the parents perceived their child as a valuable human being and how this perception founded parents\u2019 support of the child's development and social interactions. The second, \u2018Managing our family life\u2019, demonstrates how the parents acted to manage a family life that had become the \u2018new normal\u2019 including being alert toward the child, shaping the practical and logistical framework of daily life, and balancing between being at home and away from home. Overall, the analysis presents an everyday practice aimed at a desirable future for the child with Down syndrome and at a management of everyday life on the family's own terms. In conclusion, this study provides specific knowledge on parents\u2019 everyday practice, which may inform genetic counseling about Down syndrome and be of value to service providers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jgc4.1542","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,23]],"date-time":"2021-12-23T20:38:10Z","timestamp":1640291890000},"page":"758-770","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Parenting a child with Down syndrome: A qualitative study of everyday practices in Danish families"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0216-9646","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ellen Hollands","family":"Steffensen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Fetal Diagnostics Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Genetics Aarhus University Hospital  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lena Have","family":"Rosvig","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Horsens Regional Hospital  Horsens Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stephanie","family":"Santoro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Medical Genetics and Metabolism Massachusetts General Hospital  Boston Massachusetts USA"},{"name":"Department of Pediatrics Harvard Medical School  Boston Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lars\u00a0Henning","family":"Pedersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Aarhus University Hospital  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Biomedicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ida","family":"Vogel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Fetal Diagnostics Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Genetics Aarhus University Hospital  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stina","family":"Lou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Fetal Diagnostics Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"},{"name":"Defactum \u2013 Public Health &amp; Health Services Research  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471\u20100528.2008.01700.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"843","volume-title":"Thematic analysis","author":"Braun V.","year":"2019"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pedn.2013.01.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1049732320935836"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","volume-title":"Successful qualitative research: A practical guide for beginners","author":"Clarke V.","year":"2013"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12098\u2010010\u20100315\u20107"},{"issue":"6","key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","first-page":"A4270","article-title":"Becoming a client of the Danish social service system increases stress in parents of disabled infants","volume":"58","author":"Graungaard A.
