Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on parents. School and childcare closures, balancing work and homeschooling, and reduced social support led to mental health struggles for many. Little is known about the long-term effects on parents' mental health. While many parents may show resilience after the pandemic, others may experience long-term mental health problems, affecting both their wellbeing and their children's development.
