🤔 Our findings emphasise the need for policies, which consider intergenerational spillover effects of adverse life course events within families across diverse cultural, welfare and family settings.

🔎 Main findings:
1️⃣ significant mental health declines linked to children’s unemployment only in mothers
2️⃣ no notable variations in Northern Europe but significant ones in other European countries
3️⃣ significant mental health declines in Southern Europe with onset of the Great Recession in 2008

🔬 How did we study this question? We analysed longitudinal data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (@share-eric.bsky.social) for nearly 15,000 parents and over 26,000 children from 12 European countries over a decade — before, during, and after the Great Recession of 2008. 🇪🇺

➡️ In short: Yes, especially mothers suffer increased depression risks if their children experience unemployment – the consequences differ, however, across welfare and family support regimes as well as periods of economic recession. 👩‍👦📉
