If we look at things from an evolutionary perspective, it might make sense that it is fairly norma and healthy for a young child to sleep with the parents often. I'd have to do a little research on this.
I think the pressing issue here when it comes to mothers suffering from mental illness is the potential for and likelihood of neglect. When parents neglect their children, it is usually done so in ways that the parents are completely unaware of or in denial of. There are many types of neglect, all of which have great potential for damage.
