The Role of Parenting in the Development of Bipolar Disorder

Abstract

Bipolar disorder is a group of neurological illnesses distinguished by variable emotional states, and cognitive performance poses a notable problem within adult and pediatric populations. This study examines the dynamic comprehension of bipolar disorder in the younger population, explicitly emphasizing the influence of parenting choices on its emergence. The significance of acknowledging the connection between parenting styles and bipolar disorders in teenagers is underscored, as it serves the dual purpose of averting its emergence and offering timely intervention and assistance to individuals who have already been diagnosed. In this discourse, this essay aims to examine the existing gaps in research about the effects of traumatic experiences within the familial setting on individuals with bipolar disorder, hence emphasizing the necessity for further investigations in this particular domain. This study highlights the significance of expanding the conceptual framework of "parenting styles" to encompass parental behaviors, their psychological well-being, and the subsequent implications for the development of bipolar illness in teenagers. The main aim of this study is to further people’s comprehension of the complex relationship between parenting styles and teenage bipolar disorder.
