La coppia cogenitoriale
2019
Il rapporto fra cogenitori come coppia ha un impatto notevole, certamente, sulla crescita dei figli. Occorre, innanzitutto, ricordare che ogni figlio costituisce un essere unico che, pur condividendo con i fratelli una parte del patrimonio genetico, ha proprie caratteristiche distintive: dall’ordine di genitura al genere, dal fatto di nascere in un determinato periodo della vita della famiglia, alle particolari aspettative che tutti i membri della famiglia creano intorno alla sua esistenza (Aparo, 2018). Nel processo educativo, l’ascolto e la comprensione della propria reciproca storia e la condivisione di problemi e desideri con l’altro genitore può portare non solo ad una migliore comunic…
Homework Stress and Learning Disability: The Role of Parental Shame, Guilt, and Need Frustration
2022
Using a cross-sectional design, this study examined the relationships between parental guilt, shame, need frustration, and homework stress in students with learning disabilities (LD) and typically developing students (TD) and their parents. One hundred and eight parent-child dyads (54 LD, 54 TD) completed questionnaires to assess homework stress, parental need frustration, guilt, and shame. Parents of students with LD reported more stress, need frustration, shame, and guilt than parents of TD students. For the LD group, shame mediated the association between parental need frustration and parental and child stress whereas guilt mediated the association between parental need frustration and p…

The objective of our study was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the emotional and behavioral symptoms in minors with neuropsychiatric disorders and on parental stress through a standardized neuropsychological assessment, comparing the data collected before the pandemic with those collected during the lock-down. Another goal of our study was to analyze the relationship between parental stress and behavioral/emotional symptoms in children. Our study was conducted on 383 families of patients who had already been referred at the Child Neuropsychiatry Unit of the University Hospital of Salerno for different neuropsychiatric conditions. All the parents completed two neuropsychol…
Survey of third-party parenting options associated with fertility preservation available to patients with cancer around the globe
2018
Purpose In the accompanying article, “Survey of Fertility Preservation Options Available to Patients With Cancer Around the Globe,” we showed that specific fertility preservation services may not be offered at various sites around the world because of cultural and legal barriers. We assessed global and regional experiences as well as the legal status of third-party reproduction and adoption to serve as a comprehensive international data set and resource for groups that wish to begin oncofertility interventions. Methods We provide data on the legalities of third-party assisted reproductive technologies and other family-building options in the 28 oncofertility-practicing countries surveyed. R…
Is It Considered Violence? The Acceptability of Physical Punishment of Children in Europe
2008
This study analyzes correlates of the acceptability of physical punishment of children in Europe. The design was a three-level ordinal logistic regression of 10,812 people nested within 208 localities (cities), nested within 14 countries of the European Union. Results showed that higher levels of acceptability were reported by men, the older, the less educated, and those who perceived that violence against children was less frequent in their own country. At the country level, the existence of laws prohibiting physical punishment of children as well as a lower number of child maltreatment deaths were significantly associated with lower levels of acceptability of physical punishment of childr…
Ecosystem Adversity as Setting Factors in Mothers' Judgment of Child Behavior and Indiscriminate Mothering
1996
Several studies have shown that troubled mothers are not accurate observers of their children's behavior. These mothers have a global and usually blame-oriented reporting style coloured by disphoric views of social isolation, social coercion and socioeconomic disadvantage. The dsyphoric view describes a number of contextual or setting factors that seem to influence a mother's observational reports about her child more than the child's actual behavior does. Of course, when this observational bias exists, the mother's parenting performance is bound to be comprised. According to the considerations above, this study was designed with a group of 21 mother-child dyads characterized by their coer…
`Children Need Their Parents More Than a Pizza in the Fridge!'
2008
The aim of this study is to find constructions of parental responsibility by analysing letters sent by readers to a newspaper on the topic of parenting and parental responsibility. The study takes a methodological approach, focusing on the meanings of responsibility and looking at different portrayals of parenthood. Three dimensions of responsibility (beginning responsibility, diminished sense of responsibility and obligating responsibility) emerged from the analysis. These dimensions relate to different meanings attributed to parental responsibility, for instance, `responsibility for making choices'. Parenthood is variously portrayed along the three dimensions. Parental responsibility cre…

Le relazioni familiari nel cinema degli anni cinquanta verso una nuova genitorialità
2017
In questo articolo viene proposta una ricostruzione storica delle relazioni educative familiari dell’Italia degli anni Cinquanta. Dallo studio dei diversi generi cinematografici diffusisi in quegli anni (neorealismo, melò e commedia) emerge l’immagine di una famiglia in transizione, divisa tra il vecchio e il nuovo. Il cinema neorealista descriveva la crisi del modello educativo autoritario, il melò rappresentava i difficili rapporti tra uomo e donna, la commedia si faceva interprete delle nuove conflittualità relazionali vissute all’interno della famiglia nucleare, sia tra padre e madre sia tra genitori e figli. Il cinema si faceva pertanto interprete dei conflitti dell’epoca, mettendo in …

Participants were offered a protocol of instruments for the measurements of perceived conjugal and familiar self-efficacy, the parenting style, and the self-perception of the dynamics in the same-sex parenting in relationship with school institution (ad hoc questionnaire).
