  • The Association Between Child Maltreatment and Emotional, Cognitive, and Physical Health Functioning in Vietnam Nhu K
    Tran et al. BMC Public Health (2017) 17:332 DOI 10.1186/s12889-017-4258-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The association between child maltreatment and emotional, cognitive, and physical health functioning in Vietnam Nhu K. Tran, Sheila R. Van Berkel, Marinus H. van IJzendoorn and Lenneke R.A. Alink* Abstract Background: There is a paucity of research on correlates of child maltreatment in limited-resource countries with a relatively high tolerance of harsh discipline. This Vietnamese study aimed to investigate associations between different types of child maltreatment and child emotional, cognitive, and physical health functioning as well as moderation effects of gender and ethnicity. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 1851 randomly selected students aged 12–17 years. Both self-report and more objective measures (weight, height, study ranking, and a memory test) were used. Results: All types of child maltreatment were associated with emotional dysfunctioning. Life time and past year experiences of physical abuse and life time experiences of sexual abuse and neglect were related to poorer perceived physical health. The study did not find associations between any type of child maltreatment and overweight or underweight status. Regarding cognitive functioning, life time experience of sexual abuse and neglect were related to poorer working memory performance. Noticeably, emotional abuse was related to better academic performance, which might be an indication of “tiger parenting” practice in Vietnam, implying academic performance stimulation at the expense of emotional security. No significant moderation effects by gender and ethnicity were found. Conclusion: Even in a culture in which harsh discipline is normative, child maltreatment was related to negative aspects of child wellbeing including emotional, cognitive, and physical health functioning.

  • And Authoritarian Parenting Affect Children's Mental Health Taryn Jans
    Cultural divide in parenting: How “tiger parenting” and authoritarian parenting affect children’s mental health Taryn Jansen PSYC - 499 Pacific Lutheran University RUNNING HEAD: Cultural divide in parenting Jansen 1 Introduction Parents have long been under scrutiny for how they raise their children, whether they were too attentive or too neglectful, what style of punishment they were more inclined to use. The style of parenting used when raising a child has become a topic of fascination and interest, beginning in 1966 with Diana Baumrind who first coined the labels of authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and neglectful parenting styles. These labels are based on the precepts of attention and care (?) where if a parent ignores their child’s emotional, mental, and physical ​ ​ needs, they are considered neglectful parents. This study focuses on the authoritarian model of parenting where a child is expected to treat their parents with respect and assume their parents are the ultimate authority on everything. There is very little room for negotiation or understanding; the authoritarian model is considered the steadfast judge in everything. Authoritarian parenting is correlated with the use of physical punishment, such as spanking, along with harsh discipline styles, and has some negative correlations with children’s mental health. Calzada, Huang, Anicama, Fernandez, and Brotman (2012) found that the use of authoritarian parenting had a positive association with childhood depression and anxiety. Due to the harsh discipline commonly used with this style of parenting, children tend to internalize symptoms and have difficulty externalizing how they are feeling for fear of being ridiculed or invalidated.

    Early Praise for The Baby Decision “Bombardieri is magic. In this book, she takes you by the hand into the depths of the scary and sometimes overwhelming baby decision and step by step, she helps you find clarity. The Baby Decision is a must read for everyone of child-bearing age.” — Mara Altman, Author of Thanks for Coming, Baby Steps, and Bearded Lady “The intelligence and generosity of Bombardieri’s perspectives are a gift to all women and men; she deeply honors individuality while reminding us of the compassion that is all of our potential.” — Bina Venkataraman, writer and climate policy expert “I am so excited about The Baby Decision. Being thirty-one, my peers are beginning to struggle with this question in a big way. When I read about the distinction between ‘growth’ and ‘safety’ needs, a light bulb went off over my head. You broke that down so clearly and so quickly. This is such an important book!” — Katie O’Reilly, Journalist, memoirist, contributor to atlantic.com, BuzzFeed, and Bitch “The Baby Decision is an indispensable guide to greater awareness and freedom for anyone wrestling with one of life’s most important decisions. Bombardieri provides a lens that illuminates the archi- tecture of healthy decision-making. Brimming with humanity and respect, informed by research and infused with clinical wisdom, this book is a gem.” — Stephanie Morgan, MSW, Psy.D. Psychologist, Private Practice.

Treatment and Interventions A. Guiding Principles B. Treatment Plans C. Case Examples I V. Evaluations Overview This session provides a new and updated look at a decision tree originally developed by the presenters a decade ago to help professionals determine how to help high con9lict families when a child has rejected a parent. Integrating the plethora of changes in the 9ields of family violence and alienation, the updated decision tree employs the concept of gatekeeping from the child development literature. Learning ObjeCtives-1 1. Use the Decision Tree to: a) think through the meaning(s) of a child’s rejection of a parent; b) examine the probabilities and possibilities of different causes, including cases involving family violence, problems with parenting including alienation, and/or hybrid cases with multiple causes; c) how the type of gatekeeping may be a result of the different reasons a child might reject a parent in a high conlict case Learning ObjeCtives-2 2. Describe and recognize the parental behavior called gatekeeping. Learning ObjeCtives-3 3. Apply the concept of gatekeeping to a) hypothetical cases and experienced cases in which a child is rejecting a parent; b) assist in the development of interventions for these families Outline I.
