Yes, a child can receive Social Security benefits if one parent is disabled, provided that the disabled parent is entitled to Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The benefits are typically based on the disabled parent's work record. The child may be eligible for benefits if the disabled parent is receiving SSDI or SSI and meets certain criteria set by the Social Security Administration. However, the presence of both parents does not disqualify the child from receiving benefits based on the disabled parent's status.
