[Prevalence of mental illness among parents of a sample of pedopsychiatric patients].
We see in this study the association between parental mental disorder and the possibility of psychopathology in their children, at the same time pediatric patients. The children of 155 parents suffering of 10 mental disorders have been compared to 267 normal parent's children. The first group has significantly a greater frequency of emotional problems, developmental difficulties, behavioral disorders and a worst academic achievement. The association was more important if to the parental psychopathology was joined a pathological socio-familial milieu.
