Child-Parent Interactional problems

 Child parent international problems are difficulties in the relationship between a child and his parents. International problems may be during the first few months of life. The relationship between mother and baby may be strained as a consequence of a difficult pregnancy or delivery or lack of support from the father, relative, or friend may also stain a mother relationship with her baby. Contributing to the strain are the baby’s unpredictable feeding and sleeping schedules. Most babies don’t sleep trough the night until 2 to 3 months of age. During this time, most babies have frequent periods of prolonged, intense crying. The parent’s exhaustion, hostility, and guilt may combine with feeling of despair, affecting their relationship with the baby. The poor relationship may slow the child’s development of mental and social skills and cause failure to thrive.

Treatment

The parents may be offered information on the development of infants and helpful tips and for coping. A health care practitioner can also evaluate and discuss the temperament of an individual baby. These measures help the parents develop more realistic expectations and realize that guilt and conflict are normal emotions in early child rearing. This knowledge allows the parents to accept their feeling and try to rebuild a healthy relationship.
