Parent-related stress represents the level of dysfunction in the parent–child system related to the parents’ functioning. The aim of this retrospective pilot study was to assess the degree of stress perceived by mothers and fathers, in the framework of a family-centred approach to rehabilitation. We considered 43 parents of 29 children with cerebral palsy, genetic disorders or brain injury admitted to a neurological rehabilitation center. Parenting stress was assessed with the  Parenting Stress Index – Short Form (PSI-SF)  self-report questionnaire and a semi-structured investigation of situational stress factors of the family. The cognitive and motor disability of the children were assessed with the  Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 (DSM-5) and the  Gross Motor Function Classification System-( GMFCS), respectively. The results showed that parental stress is directly correlated with the level of cognitive and behavioral disability and not with motor disability. No significant difference was found in the level of stress perceived by mothers and fathers. The effect of a worsening occupational situation seemed to influence the perception of stress more than a change in the formal relationship of the couple, but neither was statistically significant.
