Background:
The German early prevention programs called "Frühe Hilfen" are open to all families with children up to 3 years old and focus on families experiencing psychosocial stress and in need of support. Families with strong psychosocial risk factors are less likely to gain access to support programs than families with lower psychosocial risk factors.
Objective:
This study identifies enabling and inhibiting factors for access to early prevention programs.
Materials And Methods:
Qualitative partially structured interviews were carried out with parents (N=17) from families (N=13) who had taken part in psychosocial counseling after a professional had identified support needs and recommended an early prevention program. The interviews were transcribed and interpreted using content analysis according to Mayring.
Results And Discussion:
Parents find clear and trustworthy communication during counseling sessions to be conducive to finding access to support programs. A barrier emerges when parents feel put under pressure or do not feel a need for support. Counseling should be offered at different points in time (e. g. pregnancy, puerperium).
Conclusion:
Open, trusting, and judgement-free communication in combination with participative decisionmaking is a promising approach when it comes to parent counseling.

Authoritarian Parenting
This style is strict and controlling, with little room for open dialogue. Authoritarian parents demand obedience and often enforce rules with minimal warmth. Children raised this way may lack social skills and initiative, usually comparing themselves to others unfavorably.
