The Effects of Parents Mental Illness on Children

Parents who suffer from mental illness face special challenges and difficulties in caring for their children. Practitioners must have special knowledge and skills in order to work effectively with these families. In this workshop participants will learn about behaviors to expect in children whose parents are mentally ill, behaviors to expect from mentally ill parents, the effects of parents’ mental illness on children’s development and behavior as well as the biogenetic risk for children.

As a result of attending this session, participants will:

1.         Identify the behaviors to expect in children whose parents are mentally ill.
2.        Identify the behaviors frequently seen in parents who have been diagnosed with mental    illnesses.  
3.         Identify the effects of parents’ mental illness on children’s development and behavior.
