Socioeconomic and psychosocial outcomes of parents with children in out-of-home care: A scoping review
Families involved with child welfare services (CWS) often diverge systematically from the general population. They are more likely to live in challenging circumstances characterised by adverse socioeconomic conditions (e.g. poverty) and psychosocial adversities (e.g. mental health problems and substance misuse). Past research has primarily focused on the development and lifelong health and social outcomes of children who have experienced out-of-home care (OHC). However, the separation could also trigger negative emotions and other changes in parents, but much less attention has been paid to the associations between children’s placement and parents’ lives.
This scoping review synthesises results from quantitative studies investigating the socioeconomic and psychosocial outcomes of parents who have experienced the removal of a child into OHC. Six databases were comprehensively searched, with 15 studies selected for inclusion in the review. Studies were conducted among countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) with substantial heterogeneity in the methods and designs, as grouped into three categories: “cross-sectional assessments” (4 studies), “longitudinal assessments” (7 studies) and “pre-post assessment” (4 studies).
To a large extent, studies focus on psychosocial outcomes among mothers. The majority indicate that having a child placed in OHC is associated with the deterioration of psychosocial or socioeconomic outcomes among parents. We may conclude that parents who have experienced the removal of a child are a group that deserves tailored support and counselling. However, further quantitative research into aspects of parents’ lives after children’s OHC placement is needed, particularly with longitudinal designs and more rigorous methods to enable a better understanding of the causes and effects of these associations. This might support the development of targeted and effective interventions for these families.
