Our aim is to explore the effect the disability has on the women’s quality of life. During data collection it was discovered that the families included in the study lived in poverty with children who were underfed or uncared for. Some children were allowed extraordinary freedoms and given responsibilities of caring for younger children in the household as well as cooking and cleaning. Some women reported being in abusive relationships.

How would approach coding these women’s quality of life?
