“…The risk of psychopathology in children may increase by reasons of hereditary-genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Studies have shown that people with psychiatric disorders experience different levels of parenting difficulties, depending on the characteristics of the disorder and the presence/absence of environmental support (Yamane et al, 2020;Erdim et al, 2015) The vast majority of developmental scientists and clinicians agree that child-rearing, parenting, and more general family functions are naturally transferred from generation to generation. This process is especially important in understanding parenting behavior because daily interactions between parent and child are critical in forming the attachment in an early life period.…”

This study aimed to examine the differences between middle-childhood children of mothers receiving and not receiving mental health services in terms of attachment dimensions and problem behaviors, and the relationship of problem behaviors in middle-childhood children with some socio-demographic variables. Using quantitative research method, this study had two sample groups: the study and comparison groups. Additionally, it involved a total of 127 mothers and 127 children in the 9-14 age group, including 62 mothers and their children in the study group (receiving mental health services) and 65 mothers and their children in the comparison group (not receiving mental health services). For data collection, the following scales were applied to both groups. The data collecting process consisted of the Personal Information Form, the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale II – Middle-Childhood, and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (AB 4-16). The results showed that the study group children tended to have insecure attachment and problematic behaviors more than the comparison group children. In addition to mother’s need for mental health services, mother’s educational level, child’s birth after an unplanned pregnancy, and separation from one or both parents for a period were also considered as important factors affecting problem behaviors in children. This study revealed the preventable factors in the development of problem behaviors in children. These results contribute to the practices of mental health professionals and the role of child welfare systems in developing protective-preventive services.
