Abstract(s)
O objectivo deste estudo exploratório é o compreender a construção dos laços de vinculação
entre a criança e a família adoptiva, consequentemente, aceder aos processos implicados no
processo de adopção, especialmente da perspectiva da criança, aprofundando as suas
dificuldades e de como vivencia todo este processo.
Foram seleccionadas três crianças com um passado de maus tratos e que foram adoptadas
tardiamente, por famílias mono e biparentais. Presentemente, têm entre os sete e os nove anos
de idade, tendo em conta o primeiro patamar importante da construção da identidade que é o
período da latência.
A cada criança foram aplicadas duas provas de cariz projectivo.
Verificaram-se diferentes efeitos das perdas das figuras parentais e da vivência em instituição
nestas crianças, e diferentes comportamentos. Comummente, sentem a mesma necessidade de
pertença a uma família.
Concluindo, o estabelecimento de uma segunda vinculação é um processo moroso, devida à
dificuldade destas crianças em confiar nas figuras que já as abandonaram no passado, mas
pode-se constatar que é possível reparar as falhas do passado e promover um desenvolvimento
harmonioso a crianças desprovidas de um ambiente securizante. A construção dos laços
identificatórios e de vinculação dependem da qualidade dos laços afectivos que estabelecem
com a família.
