The authors investigated parent mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic and its association with parenting behaviors of parents of children who are deaf or hard of hearing. An electronic survey was distributed to parents (N = 103). The results showed that they were experiencing elevated anxiety, depression, and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. A combined model demonstrated that parental distress was significantly associated with depression and with parental reports of symptoms indicating significantly higher distress. Parental distress was also significantly associated with parenting strategies: Parents who endorsed positive strategies reported significantly lower levels of distress, while parents who endorsed negative strategies reporting significantly higher levels. It was found that screening protocols to identify parents in need of support are crucial, particularly among the parent population considered in the present study. Additionally, access to mental health services and evidence-based positive parenting programs is essential.
