Abstract

Abstract This chapter discusses the need to respect and listen to the views of disabled children in general, and in relation to tourism specifically. It starts by defining the concept of voice and summarizes the broader debates and arguments regarding children's voice. The chapter then continues to cover how some children's voices, referred to as 'conventional voices', are privileged over others (such as disabled children). The subsequent section reflects on two strands of tourism research related to disability and children and highlights disabled children's invisibility and omission of their perspectives in tourism research. The chapter then provides a brief discussion of the challenges of researching with disabled children and outlines some ethical and practical considerations. Overall, this chapter serves as a springboard for further inquiry concerning disabled children's inclusion in tourism research.
