Research in which the main topic is the parenting of visually impaired people is not common, and the topic of children whose one or both parents are blind is almost non-existent in Croatian and foreign literature. Children of visually impaired parents, more precisely of blind parents, encounter different challenges and experiences while growing up. This way of growing up affects their emotional and social development and their perception of the world around them. On the one hand, they are instilled with empathy, understanding, and responsibility from an early age, while on the other hand, they encounter stigma and prejudice. Precisely for this reason, there is a longing for the elaboration of a deeper issue of this topic. Therefore, this paper, by applying qualitative data analysis, aims to answer the questions of when and in what way they became aware that their parent is a visually impaired person, more precisely a blind person. 8 participants, aged between 23 and 32, took part in the research. An equal number of respondents come from families where the mother is blind and where the father is a completely blind person. Through semi-structured interviews, the paper analyzes various aspects of awareness of blindness, including the respondents' childhood, parents' obligations, the influence of the environment on social relations, as well as interesting anecdotes in which they found themselves. The respondents' answers reveal when and in what way they became aware that their parents are completely blind and provide insight into a better understanding of family relationships and life where the parent is a completely blind person.
