Parental rage is common but often misunderstood. Surveying 400 parents, this research finds that 77% experience rage monthly, strongly linked to anxiety, overwhelm, and low support. Mothers, younger parents, and those with high anxiety are most affected. Social support emerges as the key protective factor, reframing rage as a mental-health signal.

My research investigates how families manage temporary feeding tubes at home. Using journey mapping with 30 families, it reveals overwhelming routines, safety fears, isolation, and lack of support. The findings expose major gaps in healthcare communication and training, highlighting the urgent need for better systems to help families thrive beyond “plan, prep, feed, clean, repeat.”
