In order to collect scores, questionnaires of demographic characteristics including individual, family and social factors, Connors mental health questionnaire, parent form, The knowledge, attitude and skill of the researcher were used. Data were analyzed with regression, descriptive statistics and 23spss statistical software.

In the meantime, there was no significant relationship between "parents' knowledge and skills in dealing with the disease of Covid-19" and the variable "mental health of children".
Conclusion: What is important is a careful look at the child's behavior within the context of the family and in the interaction with the parents.
