Boris, Chief of Behavioral Health at Nemours Children\u2019s Hospital, are calling for more research into effective parenting treatment models and for current treatments to recognize the risk to very young children and to incorporate an attachment-focused parenting intervention component to help protect them. There\u2019s even some indication that addiction to substances may actually physiologically impact the way parents attach to and interact with their children.<\/p>\n<p>Some studies indicate that dopamine \u2013 the chemical released in the body during a high \u2013 is also released during pleasing parent-child interactions. And that \u201cgood connection\u201d is needed to help parents and young children bond. Several studies suggest craving for other substances may actually impede a person\u2019s natural instinct to bond, nurture and protect offspring. More in-depth research is needed, Renk said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSociety needs to do a better job helping substance-abusing parents connect with their children,\u201d Boris said. \u201cWe need more funding to study models of intervention and need more providers trained to deliver those interventions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"219\" height=\"300\" class=\" size-medium img-fluid wp-image-69001\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-219x300.jpg\" alt=\"Boris, Neil\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-374x512.jpg 374w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-584x800.jpg 584w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-292x400.jpg 292w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-263x360.jpg 263w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 219px) 100vw, 219px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"219\" height=\"300\" class=\" size-medium img-fluid wp-image-69001 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20219%20300%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"Boris, Neil\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20219%20300%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 219w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 219px) 100vw, 219px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-374x512.jpg 374w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-584x800.jpg 584w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-292x400.jpg 292w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-263x360.jpg 263w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil.jpg 1024w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2015\/10\/Boris-Neil-219x300.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Dr. Neil W.
