Advisor(s)
Abstract(s)
Hoje em dia existem variados programas que ensinam as competências e funções parentais.
Essas competências, após adquiridas, são utilizadas na relação entre pais e filhos. Mas, e estes
filhos? O que pensam eles dos pais? O que é para os filhos ter um bom pai? Quais as funções
que eles reconhecem como mais importantes nas figuras parentais? O presente estudo
exploratório tem como objectivo responder a estas perguntas, dando voz às crianças. Aplicouse
um questionário aberto a 103 crianças entre os 7 e os 9 anos de idade. Após ter sido
efectuada uma análise de conteúdo, obtiveram-se 7 funções principais que as crianças
reconhecem num bom pai/mãe. Foram comparadas estatisticamente as respostas dadas às
categorias conforme o sexo, idade, e a co-habitação das crianças (filhos de pais juntos vs pais
separados). Analisou-se ainda a distinção entre boas características de um pai e boas
características de uma mãe.
Today there are many programs that teach parenting skills and functions. After acquired, these skills are used in the relationship between parents and children. But what about these children? What do they think of their parents? What do children think is a good father? What are the functions that they recognize as most important in their parents? This exploratory study aims to answer these questions, giving voice to the children. An open questionnaire was applied to 103 children between 7 and 9 years old. Having made an analysis of content, 7 main functions were found that are recognized by children as good father / mother. The answers were statistically compared in the categories as concerns: sex, age, and co-housing of children (children of parents that are together vs separated parents). It was also analyzed the distinction between good father characteristics and good mother characteristics.
