Several factors can contribute to strained parent-child relationships. Common causes include:
- Communication Breakdown: Misunderstandings or lack of effective communication can lead to conflicts. - Parental Stress: High levels of stress in parents can negatively impact their interactions with their children. - Parenting Style: Authoritarian or overly permissive parenting can create tension. - External Factors: Financial difficulties, marital issues, or other external stressors can strain relationships.
