Enquadramento: As contínuas mudanças socio-legais vieram permitir a visibilidade das novas famílias, nomeadamente das famílias adotivas LGB.A alterações legislativas no que respeita à adoção tiveram um forte impacto nesse sentido. O aumento da infertilidade e a possibilidade de construção familiar através de adoção, tornam necessário um olhar mais atento e a exploração do percurso destas famílias na transição para a parentalidade. Objetivos: 1) explorar as adversidades encontradas pelas famílias adotivas, de diferentes
constituições familiares, durante a transição para a parentalidade; 2) explorar as estratégias de resiliência que estas famílias arranjaram para fazer face às adversidades encontradas durante a transição para a parentalidade. Método: A amostra é composta por seis famílias adotivas portuguesas (4 famílias hétero e 2 famílias LGB), que construíram a parentalidade via adoção, com uma idade entre os 31 e 46 anos de idade (M=41; DP= 5,066). As entrevistas semiestruturadas foram realizadas online e analisadas a partir da análise temática reflexiva de Braun e Clarke. Resultados: Os resultados revelaram a
existência de adversidades comuns e especificas durante a transição para a parentalidade e que, nas estratégias de resiliência, as famílias recorreram à resiliência familiar e à resiliência comunitária, quando a resiliência familiar se mostrava insuficiente. Conclusão: As adversidades comuns e especificas, assim como, os mecanismos de defesa a que as famílias recorreram, vão ao encontro com o que a literatura descreve. Contudo há uma adversidade recorrente que é a insuficiência por parte equipas de adoção para atender às necessidades das famílias adotivas e às suas especificidades
Background: Ongoing socio-legal changes have made new families more visible, particularly LGB adoptive families. Legislative changes regarding adoption have had a strong impact on this. The increase in infertility and the possibility of building a family through adoption make it necessary to take a closer look and explore the journey of these families in the transition to parenthood. Objectives: 1) to explore the adversities encountered by adoptive families from different family backgrounds during the transition to parenthood; 2) to explore the resilience strategies that these families have found to cope with the adversities encountered during the transition to parenthood. Method: The sample is made up of six Portuguese adoptive families (4 straight families and 2 LGB families), who established their parenthood through adoption, aged between 31 and 46 (M=41; SD= 5.066). The semi-structured interviews were conducted online and analysed using Braun and Clarke's reflective thematic analysis Results The results revealed the existence of common and specific adversities during the transition to parenthood and that, in terms of resilience strategies, families resorted to family resilience and community resilience when family resilience proved insufficient Conclusion: The common and specific adversities, as well as the defence mechanisms used by the families, are in line with what the literature describes. However, there is one recurring adversity, which is the failure of adoption Community resilience teams to meet the needs of adoptive families and their specificities.
