Parents were perpetrators in 84% of the 879,000 substantiated cases of child abuse reported in the year 2000. Children from birth to three are at the highest risk for child abuse and resulting fatalities. Prenatal care providers who are in the best position to identify mothers at risk for parenting problems do not screen mothers for parenting risk. The aim of this study was to maximize healthy family outcomes through the development of a maternal prenatal assessment battery based on attachment theory. The Prenatal Questionnaire (PQ) was developed to fill a need for a practical evidence-based prenatal screen for parenting problems designed for wide usage, easy administration, and clinical applicability with the hope that healthcare providers in all settings would incorporate a prenatal screener as part of their intake procedure. This study proposed that parenting risk could be measured prenatally and that a self-administered prenatal assessment based on attachment theory would identify both risk and protective factors of maternal risk for problematic parenting. The Prenatal Questionnaire (PQ) consists of existing measures: the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form (CTQ-SF), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Dyadic Satisfaction subscale (DS) of the Dyadic Adjustment Screen (DAS) and Partner Violence Inventory (PVI) and additional questions developed by the researcher. Thirty-seven low-income mostly Caucasian women between age 14 and 38 receiving prenatal care at a community clinic volunteered. Mothers completed the PQ during pregnancy and were assessed postpartum by the Borgess Interactive Assessment (BIA) an in-hospital screener of risk for parenting problems. Statistical analyses using independent samples t-tests, chi square tests of independence, and Pearson correlations partially confirmed all hypotheses. Results found that a mothers' involvement with the father of the baby was most predictive of parenting risk status. High risk mothers were more likely to be single, uninvolved with baby's father, report drug or alcohol problems in parents and partner, childhood separation from mother, prenatal depression, past suicidal behaviors, and criminal history in the baby's father. Risk correlated with prenatal depression, mutual fighting, and drug or alcohol problems in the couple. Childhood abuse, domestic violence outside of mutual fighting were not significantly related to risk.
