Hi everyone,
I am interested to find articles that talk about negative effect that support might have on a parent with developmentally chalenged child (e.g. giving advice when not asked for, criticism, innapropriate comments). I am mostly interested in this construct, but also search for papers that link consequential stress to well-being.
This topic is obviously not as appealing as positive side of social support and I have trouble finding reasearch that explored it among these parents. I would kindly ask for help in form of a reasearch paper, tip, hint, thought or direction in which I could turn my searches to. Of course, more recent papers that deal with this group specifically would be best, but I gratefully accept any recommendation that might help me improve my understanding of the topic (like classical work by KS Rook (1984) The negative side of social interaction: impact on psychological well-being or Shumaker, & Brownell, (1984). Toward a theory of social support: Closing conceptual gaps )
Thank you all very much in advance...
Lana
Hello Lana,
Are these of any help; like your references, they are quite old now:
Garwick, A. W., Patterson, J. M., Bennett, F. C., & Blum, R. W. (1998). Parents' perceptions of helpful vs unhelpful types of support in managing the care of preadolescents with chronic conditions. Archives of pediatrics & adolescent medicine, 152(7), 665-671.

The full text is available, but when I tried to add it, RG transformed it to their link, and I was unable to undo:

This might not be what you want but it mentioned unhelpful types of support apart from financial support:

I hope these are helpful.
Very best wishes,

Thanks Marizela Kljajić
and Mary C R WilsonI am interested in both qualitative and quantitative research, but I have trouble finding recent studies on this topic! It seems like it does not exist or (more likely) I have trouble finding it. Thanks for your recommendations, any help is much apretiated :-)
Have a nice week,
Lana
I've just had another look on Google Scholar at related articles, but none of them are recently published.
In my study I did find this was often the experince of mothers receiving unwanted advice from other mothers, health proffessionals or service providers and educators. Maybe look at some of the literature around mother blaming or self stigma as i am sure there will be stoires of this within qualitative research.
