摘要:'Children of Parents With Mental Illness 2: Personal and Clinical Perspectives' looks at the insights and experiences of children and adults who have lived or grown up with parents with a mental illness. The experiences highlight the need to think of all family members when a parent has a mental illness and identifies the needs of children to belong and have someone to talk to about their experiences.
