A child's emotional and mental health...?

If a child grows up with one parant (doesn't matter if it's the mother or father), and doesn't know the other, isn't it true to say that that affects a child's emotional and mental health as they grow into their teenage years? Also, if the parent that raised them didn't spend too much quality time with their child, doesn't that affect their child's mental and emotional health? I say yes but some people disagree with me...A child's emotional and mental health...?Yes. Studies show that 4 out of 5 children in that situation will become serial killers.A child's emotional and mental health...?You are correct, according to me and tons of research on this topic. If a child has only one parent and no contact with the absent parent they are left to wonder, whether consciously or subconsciously, what they did to cause the lack of relations and what life would be like if they had them. As for the quality time question this is obvious. We all need nurturing and this is especially true during the formative years. Hope this helped!A child's emotional and mental health...?it does hurt a lot.
