Abstract:Background
The Japanese government has established a law encouraging early detection and treatment of developmental disorders in children. Child behavior problems (CBP) tend to be recognized at school as a result of developmental disorders. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with CBP in Japan. We hypothesized that factors other than developmental disorders are important in explaining CBP.

“…Parental educational level was found to influence parental mental health through stress ( Reiss, 2013 ). Lower parental educational level was also found to influence, parenting skills and choices such as lax, hostile or over reactive parenting ( Boe et al, 2014 ; de Laat et al, 2018 ; Parkes et al, 2015 ; Suzuki et al, 2019 ). Parental mental health, parental stress and parenting practices may influence the mental health of children ( de Laat et al, 2018 ).…”
Rationale
A range of family and neighbourhood indicators of socioeconomic status and migrant status have been shown to be associated with risk of mental health l problems (MHP) in children. In this study we determined the independent contributions of these indicators.
Objectives
The main objective is to examine independent associations of family and neighbourhood socioeconomic status indicators and migrant status with risk of MHP in children.
Methods
We analyzed data from an anonymous public health survey among 5010 parents/caretakers of children aged 4–12 years living in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, gathered in 2018. Outcome of interest was risk of MHP measured using the total difficulties score of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. Associations of parent-reported perceived financial difficulties, material deprivation (not being able to provide certain goods, or leisure, educational or cultural activities or care use for children due to financial restrictions), parental educational level, child's migrant status and neighbourhood socioeconomic status with risk of MHP and with the total difficulties score were assessed using multilevel multivariable logistic and linear regression models.
Results
In total, 473 (9.5%) children had a high risk of MHP. We observed independent associations of perceived financial difficulties, material deprivation and parental educational level with risk of MHP and with an increase in total difficulties score (P < 0.05). Migrant status and neighbourhood socioeconomic status were not independently associated with risk of MHP or a change in total difficulties score.
Conclusions
Already in early life, perceived financial difficulties by parents, material deprivation reported by parents and lower parental education appeared to be independently associated with the risk of MHP in 4–12 year olds. Health professionals should be aware of the relatively higher risks in these subgroups and consider policies address this.

“…Along with the illness, parental skills, parents' mental health status, and relationship status between parents impact the development of behavioral problems in children (Suzuki et al, 2019). Participants explained some of the issues that developed when the child was too young to understand the situation: My son is very young, 8 months old.…”

Section: The Obligation To Be Separated From the Childmentioning
Purpose
The aim of this study was to examine the experience of parents with coronavirus disease 2019 which demanded they separate from their children.
Design and Method
Designed as a descriptive and qualitative study; the interviews were guided by a questionnaire developed by researchers in light of the relevant literature.
Findings
It was determined that the obligation of parents to stay separate from their children caused difficulties such as finding someone to take care of their children, coping with the emotions related to being separated, and explaining this situation to their children.
Practice Implications
With this study, the difficulties experienced by parents who become ill and separated from their children were revealed. Approaches are suggested that can be used while determining solutions to these larger issues.
“…In previous studies, it was determined that children who were deprived of their mother were more aggressive than other children[ 25 , 26 ]. Suzuki et al [ 27 ] determined that parents’ skills and mental health and the relationship between the parents had an effect on children to develop behavioral problems. Also, the nurses stated that besides the inability of fulfilling the motherhood roles, they suffer an indescribable pain because they cannot hold their children and show them love (Theme 1).…”
BACKGROUND
This research demonstrates that nurses feel pain because the pandemic process has separated them from their family and children.
AIM
To examine the family relationship situation of nurses in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
METHODS
The research adopted a descriptive qualitative design. Participants were selected by the snowball method. An individual in-depth interview technique was used while the participants were away. In-depth interviews were made with a total of 27 nurses. Nine of these nurses were excluded from the study due to communication problems and device problems during the interview.
RESULTS
This research showed that nurses suffered from family relationship breakdown and insufficiency in intrafamilial coping. The nurses stayed away from their families due to overtime and fear of COVID-19. They cannot meet the needs of their children and spouses for whom they are responsible, and they cannot spare time for them. They were living a tiring life with great responsibility and faced with mental problems such as burnout syndrome and depression. This study was conducted in three cities with a high number of COVID-19 cases in Turkey. We investigated three themes: Breakdown in continuity of intrafamilial relationship, ineffectiveness in role performance, and ineffective individual coping.
CONCLUSION
The nurses suffer from conditions such as change in parent-infant/child relation and insufficiency in intrafamilial process coping.
