“…However, it may place a child in the position of missing school for appointments and confusion and stress with trying to understand adult concepts. Studies have found language brokering similar to parentification in contributing to depressive symptoms, increased anxiety, and psychological distress (Arellano et al, 2018; Rainey et al, 2017).…”

Parentification has been found to impact both the short- and long-term physical, mental, and social/emotional well-being of children and adolescents and can be viewed as a social determinant of health. The COVID-19 pandemic has only compounded these effects. We demonstrate how school counselors are uniquely positioned to identify and assist parentified students. Using a multitiered approach, we suggest school counseling strategies and interventions that support this vulnerable group of students.

Language brokering is an informal translation practice found in language contact and immigrant contexts where bilingual children and adolescents serve as translators for family members. Language brokering research has yielded mixed findings on its outcomes on emotional well‐being and academic achievement. A lesser studied area has been the examination of the long‐term cognitive and linguistic effects of language brokering experiences. Considering the pervasiveness of immigration and language contact both in the United States and around the world, this paper posits that language brokering is a multidimensional collective experience resulting from structural and familial factors (e.g., immigration and policy) that has implications for emotional, linguistic, cognitive, and sociocultural processes for the broker and the broker's family. By providing an overview of recent research on the cognitive and linguistic impact of language brokering experiences, this paper focuses on the potential lasting effects of this experience and identifies potential areas of future investigation for bilingualism researchers.
