Abstract :
Parental mental illnesses are a major
biological and environmental risk factor to which many
children are exposed. Around 15–23% of children
globally live with a parent who has a mental illness
(Leidesdorff et al.,2017). This high-risk group of people
may indeed be greatly affected psychologically and
physically, which affects the fellow children as well as
other individuals in society. This study aims to address
the mental health of children of parents who do have
mental illnesses and the interventions that can provided
to them, using evidence from a systematic literature
review. The PICO approach was utilised to facilitate the
search via evidence-based practise. The PRISMA
Technique was followed. Springer Link, DOAJ,
PubMed, and Taylor & Francis databases were used to
find studies. Examined the reference lists of the included
research studies to find relevant publications to
contextualise the study. The inclusion and exclusion
criteria for the study have also been developed. Results
of the study was Total data consists 12720 documents,
out of which only 28 studies found to be considered to
the present study. The data of the studies have indeed
been gathered and divided into two sections: one on the
mental health of children of parents with mental illness
