From the Paper:

"Researchers indicate that many mothers of newborns often develop hormonal changes that trigger depression. Recent news events in which depressed mothers have killed their children demonstrate that this issue is one of significant importance to our society. While feelings of this magnitude do not inflict all parents of newborns, those that are affected suffer in great numbers throughout the world. Additionally, mothers of children, (aged newborn to three years of age) who compound this emotional time with divorce are often alone, and in need of assistance in providing a stable environment for their children. With their worlds filled with new life, and the loss of a mate, this delicate period in a mother's existence can be quite overwhelming. Furthermore, these life complications can adversely affect the children of the home because there is a lack of emotional stability for the child to learn from. "
