Recovery experts Tian Dayton, Ph.D.; Steven J. Wolin, M.D.; Cynthia Morena Tuohy; and Anthony Dekkur, D.O. discuss the impact that mental or substance use disorders often have on several generations of the same family. Parental mental or substance use disorders can affect emotional, social, and behavioral well-being in children, who mature and pass on what they have learned to the next generation. Early intervention can interrupt these intergenerational patterns.
