Abstract
Despite the changes that have taken place in recent years, there are plenty of activities that are
still inaccessible to categories of excluded and marginalized people due to numerous barriers in
the social space. New media, and among them the Internet, offer a real chance to get rid of these
limitations at least partially. Therefore, in this paper, I try to present the importance and functions
of the Internet as attributed by parents of people with disabilities. The research conducted
was qualitative in nature, and data analysis was based on the procedures of the grounded theory
methodology.
