Uninvolved parents make few to no demands of their children and they are often indifferent, dismissive, or even completely neglectful. They do not respond well to the needs of their children and provide little affection, support, or love. They also make very few demands on their children. They rarely set rules and do not offer guidance or expectations for behavior.

Causes -

It is important to note that uninvolved parenting is often not intentional. It may arise for a number of different reasons, including things like parental experience and stress.
1. Parents who exhibit an uninvolved parenting style were often raised by uninvolved and dismissive parents. As adults, they may find themselves repeating the same patterns they were raised with. Other parents who display this style may simply be so caught up in their busy lives that they find it easier to take a hands-off approach to deal with their children.
2. In some cases, parents may be so wrapped up in their own problems (i.e., being overworked, coping with depression, struggling with substance abuse) that they actually fail to see how uninvolved they are with their children or are simply unable to provide the emotional support their children need.

Effects -

Outcomes linked to uninvolved parenting include children who: 1) Are anxious or stressed due to the lack of family support 2) Are emotionally withdrawn 3) Fear becoming dependent on other people 4) Have an increased risk of substance abuse 5) Must learn to provide for themselves 6) Tend to exhibit more delinquency during adolescence

Post-Partum Psychosis

  Postpartum psychosis (or puerperal psychosis) is a severe mental illness. It starts suddenly in the days, or weeks, after having a baby. Symptoms vary, and can change rapidly. This condition causes a woman to experience symptoms that can be scary for her. She may hear voices, see things that aren’t reality, and experience extreme feelings of sadness and anxiety. These symptoms warrant emergency medical treatment. It can happen to any woman and often occurs ‘out of the blue’, even if you have not been ill before. It can be a frightening experience for a mother, her partner, friends and family. It can last several weeks or longer – but you will usually recover fully. It is much less common than baby blues or postnatal depression. Causes - Several things seem to play a part in postpartum psychosis. Your family history and genetic factors are important.
