Commentary on "Community mental health care for women with severe mental illness who are parents" - The tragedy of missed opportunities: of missed opportunities: What providers can do

Joanne Nicholson et al. Community Ment Health J. 2002 Apr.

Abstract

Women and men who meet criteria for psychiatric disorder are likely to be parents. Many go undiagnosed and untreated, putting themselves and their children at risk of poor outcomes. Adults with mental illness may fear disclosing their status as parents; providers may not ask. Practices can be modified to promote the well being of parents with mental illness and their children.
