Distressed parents have themselves often been endangered and, as a consequence, sometimes endanger their children either through maltreatment or through the effects of parental psychiatric disorder. This book explains how that happens and clusters parents in terms of the psychological processes that result in maladaptive childrearing.

The book closes with 10 suggestions for improving professionals' responses to troubled families and endangered children ER -
