Family
Stress & Adaption

Family stress theory sets forward acute
stressors (meaning sudden onset) which when
accumulated could lead to family crises, including
physical, emotional, or relational crises. Examples of
such family crises resulting from family stressors are
episodes of domestic violence, substance abuse
(relapses), illness from weakened immune systems,
divorce, accidents, children being abused, or
neglected, etc.
However, their impact can be muted, or buffered with
protective factors which help families to survive
multiple contextual stressors, and to continue to
competently parent despite chronic and acute
stressors.
