Family environment

Article body
Family environment mediates the effect of child sexual abuse on the development of BPD. An unstable family environment predicts the development of the disorder, while a stable family environment predicts a lower risk. One possible explanation is that a stable environment buffers against its development. There are three family types that are associated with increased likelihood of developing bpd: chaotic families, where little attention is given to children, perfect families, where little negative emotional responses are tolerated, and typical families, which may not be able to care for highly sensitive or impulsive children.
