“…This paper examines the impact of maternal mental health on child health, relating to a very large body of literature on intergenerational transmissions in various aspects such as income or education (Solon, 1999;Black and Devereux, 2011). It also relates to a rich body of literature on the impact of parental income on child health (Case et al, 2002;Apouey and Geoffard, 2013;Fletcher and Wolfe, 2014;Khanam et al, 2014;Kuehnle, 2014), as well as emerging literature on the effects of parental health on child education (Bratti and Mendola, 2014;Alam, 2015;Le and Nguyen, 2015). 1 However, this paper more closely connects to an emerging body of research focusing on the relationship between parental health and child health.…”
