Gain a better understanding of parent-child boundaries and the
mechanisms for their dissolution The breakdown of appropriate
generational boundaries between parent and child can threaten the
child's psychological development. Implications of Parent-Child
Boundary Dissolution for Developmental Psychopathology: Who Is the
Parent and Who Is the Child? explores this covert and oftentimes
ignored form of emotional abuse, discussing in detail the various
ways it can manifest. This revealing text comprehensively examines
how the burden of meeting the emotional needs of the parent
interferes with the child's healthy development. The boundary
dissolution patterns of role reversal, enmeshment, psychological
control, and triangulation are closely examined with an eye toward
providing appropriate strategies for dealing with the problem.
Implications of Parent-Child Boundary Dissolution for Developmental
Psychopathology is separated into four sections to focus
extensively on every aspect of the problem. The first section
discusses definitions, concepts, and methodological concerns of the
phenomena, including a consideration of the child's developmental
responses to boundary dissolution. The second section explores the
empirical research concerning boundary dissolution within the
family system, and includes intriguing information on the actual
mechanism that passes the pattern of role reversal on to the
following generation. The next section closely examines boundary
violations within high-risk families, with a focus on those
undergoing divorce. The final section concentrates on cultural
contexts of boundary dissolution and includes a look at the
perception of familial responsibility and its effects on Bosnian
youths. This one-of-a-kind resource is extensively referenced, and
provides a solid foundation to inspire a new generation of theory,
research, and clinical work. Implications of Parent-Child Boundary
Dissolution for Developmental Psychopathology examines: a
