Z60.1: Atypical parenting situation

Atypical parenting situations, classified under the ICD-10 code Z60.1, encompass a broad range of scenarios where parental roles or relationships deviate from what is considered the societal norm. These atypical situations can include single-parent households, teenage parents, same-sex parents, grandchildren raised by grandparents, foster or adoptive families, and other unusual family settings. They may result from a variety of circumstances, including divorce, premature death of a parent, adoption, or unexpected pregnancy. Depending on the situation, these atypical parenting circumstances could potentially lead to certain psychosocial and emotional challenges for the individuals in the family. It's important to note that the effects of these situations can vary greatly depending on a range of factors, including the child's developmental stage, the family's support system, and the overall family dynamics.
