Abstract: Reviews literature and reports on parenting needs identified in a Canadian study that examined parents living with HIV/AIDS. Some themes that emerged were chronic sorrow, stress and burden, stigma, secrecy, and disclosure. Parenting was found to be a source of joy, even when complicated by the special circumstances of AIDS/HIV. (BF)
