Positive relationship factors may help break cycle of child maltreatment

What

The Journal of Adolescent Health released a special supplement investigating the role of safe, stable, nurturing relationships (SSNRs) and social contexts in the cycle of child maltreatment across generations. Efforts focused on enhancing SSNRs between parents and children, as well as between parents and other adults, may be a helpful prevention strategy for breaking the cycle of child maltreatment and promoting life-long health.

The special issue includes the following:

  • Examining the Role of Safe, Stable, and Nurturing Relationships in the Intergenerational Continuity of Child Maltreatment—Introduction to the Special Issue

Findings
Key findings emerged on the positive effect of SSNRs on disrupting the transmission of child maltreatment across generations:

  • Parents who were maltreated as children were more likely to have children who were also maltreated.
  • SSNRs may help break the cycle of maltreatment from parent to child.
  • Supportive and nurturing relationships for adults can be protective for children
