CUNHA, Katiane da Costa et al. Coparenting Quality and Stress in Parents of Children with Cerebral Palsy. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2021, vol.27, e0010.  Epub 02-Mar-2021. ISSN 1980-5470.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1980-54702021v27e0010.

The aim of this paper is to verify the association between quality of co-parenting and stress in parents of children with cerebral palsy (CP). This is a cross-sectional and descriptive study. Eighty-one parents of children up to twelve years old diagnosed with CP were included. The instruments used were Sociodemographic Inventory, Gross Motor Functional Rating Scale, Parental Stress Index and Coparenting Questionnaire. High levels of total stress are associated with stress levels in parent distress sub-items, dysfunctional parent-child interaction, and difficult child. The parents evaluated in the Coparenting Questionnaire with low cooperation were registered with high levels of stress in the subscale parental suffering. The data showed a significant relationship between the quality of coparenting and the level of stress in parents of children with CP.
