Parental mental illness Relatively little has been written about the effect of serious and persistent parental mental illness
on child abuse, although many studies show that substantial proportions of mentally ill mothers are living away from their
children.14 Much of the discussion about the effect of maternal mental illness
on child abuse focuses
on the poverty and homeless - ness of mothers who are mentally ill, as well as
on the behavior problems of their
children — all issues that are correlated with involvement with
child welfare services.15 Jennifer Culhane and her colleagues followed a five - year birth cohort among women who had ever been homeless and found an elevated rate of involvement with
child welfare services and a nearly seven - times - higher rate of having
children placed into foster care.16 More direct evidence
on the relationship between maternal mental illness and
child abuse in the general population, however, is strikingly scarce, especially given the 23 percent rate of self -
reported major depression in the previous twelve months among mothers involved with
child welfare services, as shown in NSCAW.17
