Here are the most recent research and intervention strategies for children of alcoholic parents, children of mentally ill parents, and children of incarcerated parents. Nationally recognized authorities in the fields of child development, social work, social science, medicine, psychology, and psychiatry address the causes of these problems, the impact they have on family relationships and child rearing patterns, the intervention strategies that could be successful in preventing a second generation with similar problems, and the need to establish social agencies and organizations that offer treatment and support for these special families.
