Educação intrafamiliar e suas interfaces com a violência contra o adolescente

Abstract

The family context is the ideal reference not only for raising and educating children, as it is where the child must learn moral values, conduct and the formation of his personality. Parents are primarily responsible for the family base, providing a calm, peaceful environment full of harmony, affection and protection. Controversially, some families have constituted the place of violence through coercive discipline, in which the power of parents through physical force is employed, in the form of punishment and the imposition of verbal or physical authoritarianism. The objective: To identify violent educational strategies adopted in home education. Quali-quantitative research, conducted in the community of Romeiros in Cajueiro-AL, approved by the Research Ethics Committee under protocol 3.426.280. Research conducted through an interview in which a semi-structured questionnaire about socioeconomic characteristics and parental knowledge about education was applied. Sixteen legal guardians for the education of adolescents aged 12 to 16 years participated in the research. The contribution offered to the scientific community was the formation of the critical thinking of the community and the participants of the research on family education and violence reduction, as well as being able to offer the Family Health Strategy an approach to health education. Even with the existence of child protection laws, many parents still use physical punishment as an educational measure. There is still a lack of information about the legislation that guarantees the protection of children and adolescents. It is concluded that there is a need for an articulated action, organized in networks, composed of the various government agencies: education, health and social service in a multidisciplinary manner that guarantee the right to life without violence.
