Balancing Strollers and Spreadsheets: Here Are 2025’s Top Metros for Working Moms | News Channel 3-12
- A study led by Jamie Daw, published in JAMA Internal Medicine, found that the mental health of mothers in the U.S. Worsened notably between 2016 and 2023.
- This decline followed a drop of 12 points in mothers rating their mental health as excellent and a four-point decline in excellent physical health.
- The study examined data from over 198,000 mothers and found that both mental and physical health were considerably poorer for women who were unmarried, had lower educational attainment, or had children without private health insurance, including those covered by public programs or uninsured.
- Daw emphasized that the increasing decline in mental well-being experienced by mothers should be a primary focus for initiatives aimed at enhancing the health of both mothers and their children in the United States.
- The results indicate that maternal mood disorders may impact children over the long term both by directly influencing their development and by raising the likelihood of exposure to associated challenges like increased substance use by parents and reduced economic stability at home.
