Summary

This study looked at two educational programs for parents with late-stage cancer who have children between 5 and 17 years old. The goal was to help parents feel more confident talking with their child about cancer and improve the parent-child relationship. The programs aimed to reduce anxiety and depression in both parents and children. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
