A study of 783 university students into the links between parentification and later adult wellness showed those who experienced parentification have an increased risk of depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and substance abuse (Hooper, Marotta, & Lanthier, 2008).
Do you recognise any dangers or positive outcomes from parentification in yourself or your family?
