This study offers insights into the theory of change of PII by unveiling the transformation processes of caregivers and identified the key factors promoting positive outcomes. Through focusing on breakthroughs, it also sheds light on the inner struggles and rewards the parents experienced as the primary caregivers and interventionists. It invites clinical professionals to consider the wellbeing of caregivers as one of the key social determinants of the success of PIIs, and explore how self-care, environmental setup, and discernment to intervene shape immediate and long-term clinical outcomes
