Emotionally Troubled Mothers

Follow up studies of children who have recovered physically from severe bums have revealed that emotional disturbances not only in the children but also in 60 per cent of their mothers. Most mothers thought that the disturbances in their children were the result of the burn experience, pain and the separation from home during the hospitalization, but some studies report a high incidence of psychopathology in the family unit before the burn incident.xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

Many mothers were preoccupied with some unresolved problem at the time of the accident. This preoccupation appeared to divert the mothers’ attention away from the child and delayed reactions that could have prevented injury.
