Parents have individual support needs, such as in cases of mental or social illness, which make it challenging for the parents to fulfil their parental role.
“It is valuable for professionals to bear in mind that parents have individual support needs, such as in cases of mental or social illness, which make it challenging for the parents to fulfil their parental role (Reticena et al., 2019).”

The Results (page not provided) say nurses should identify parents’ individual parenting challenges and needs, address maternal depression, and support families in complex personal and social situations. The Discussion (page not provided) says some parents need guidance to perform their role, but the paper does not specifically describe “mental or social illness” as the cause of that difficulty. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredBy developing a trusting relationship with parents, professional support can both promote parental role construction and provide guidance to parents, which can in turn more effectively facilitate the transition to parenthood and create a safe environment for the children.
“Previous review articles have shown that by developing a trusting relationship with parents, professional support can both promote parental role construction and provide guidance to parents, which can in turn more effectively facilitate the transition to parenthood and create a safe environment for the children (Reticena et al., 2019).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
