The impact of the crisis on families



E ast Wednesday I had the opportunity to participate in the conference sponsored by the Foundation for Assistance to Drug Addiction " The impact of the crisis on some families instead." The English company has more than two years immersed in economic crisis, and I think it is very necessary to stop and analyze what might be the consequences for families who are being hit by an unprecedented crisis in our young democracy.

Some data are already evident, as is the decrease in the number of divorces and separations. And it is to break the marriage costs a lot, and when it is scarce, couples can choose to keep coexistence, although this is very complicated. For years we know that the relationship between the family's economic situation and the marital relationship is paradoxical, because if on one hand the lack of resources increases marital conflict, it also puts the spouses to a divorce malavenidos very difficult because maintaining two homes is very expensive for an economy battered family.

Therefore, we are seeing familiar situations in which the loss of use of one or two members of the couple, or the threat of its loss leads to increased family stress can make it more likely that situations aggression and gender violence or child abuse, since there is enough empirical evidence indicating that this stress is a major risk factor for both types of violence. In relation to violence against women is noteworthy that unemployment is affecting the productive sectors (industry, construction), traditionally male, so they are increasing the number of families in which the man loses his job and is in a situation of dependence on women. This new balance of power is not always well accepted by man, you may want to compensate by physical domination.

can also be severely damaged parent-child relationships, especially at times they are more complicated as early adolescence. The causes of this deterioration may be related to increased levels of stress generated by unemployment and economic hardship, but their weight may also have increased the negative view of adolescence, leading some parents to make biased interpretations and prejudices of some behaviors that are normative children during this time. As we have already had occasion to comment in a previous post, the image society has of his youth and adolescents often encompass social changes. So while at times is needed for rapid incorporation into the work of new generations, as in war and postwar periods, they tend to present as mature and responsible, in situations of crisis that image is replaced by a less favorable, it does not pursue other purpose but to keep them away from employment and social participation.

In other moments of excess labor data have emerged that have supported the importance for child development of mothering, from the risks of substitute care in nurseries and kindergartens. In this way it was intended to keep women away from a labor market in low hours. But those were different times, and I refuse to think of a regression in women's work. We to reflect further on the implications for families in this economic crisis, which so reluctant to abandon shown.

New Citizen Congratulation Letter

The educational value of


N or doubt that the living conditions of children have improved markedly in the Western world, both in regard to food, hygiene and physical conditions of aging, such as affective treatment children receive, but all have disappeared in situations of neglect or abuse.

These changes in the contexts in which children can grow up to produce some paradoxical situations. Thus, excessive hygiene, and characterizes a large number of developed Western societies, has influenced the increased risk of allergies and autoimmune diseases that have these children compared to those living in less developed countries, where hygiene is lower. At least this is the main conclusion of a study conducted at Duke University and funded by the National Institutes of Health USA and the Foundation Fannie E. Rippel.

psychological level also tend to protect more than avoiding all kinds of frustrations and conflicts, and we should ask whether this excess of zeal overprotective can not also involve some effects undesirable.

Some data from studies that have taken place recently may be pointing in that direction. Thus, in a longitudinal study in which we have followed 100 adolescents from 13 to 23 years we have found that those boys and girls who reported more disputes and conflicts with their mothers and fathers were 13 years old who a decade later showed better psychological adjustment. This information can be easily explained, is that parent-child conflict in early adolescence act as a catalyst that precipitated the change must experience the relationship between parents and children to adapt to new needs arising with the onset of puberty. That is, conflicts are necessary at this stage provided the parent to be flexible and have plenty of waist to fit, since in such cases tend to resolve conflicts appropriately and will disappear to make way for a more mature and harmonious.

may seem more surprising data from another longitudinal study, led by Professor Arranz University of the Basque Country, on a sample of 551 children studied at 5 and 8 years, and we found that those children who at first were exposed to more marital conflict showed greater cognitive development three years later. No doubt a very shocking fact is not easy to interpret. This finding could be understood taking into account the behavioral development of resilience that would have been able to develop the children in the sample before exposure to the conflict in T1. Children in the sample of this study exposure to conflict in T1 could act as a resilient behavior favoring the backdrop of a proper family. Thus, exposure to different situations of conflict may have created an internal conflict that serves to activate the cognitive development by seeking an understanding of the situation. Specifically, the dispute could hasten the overcoming of selfishness cognitive characteristic of children of 5 years. Although

should further deepen the study of the psychological consequences of conflict for the development of children and adolescents, it seems hardly advisable to remove our children from all kinds of frustrations and conflicts. Many of these situations can be used to make them more resistant.
