The United States has reinforced its anti-immigrant reforms frequently. With these changes in the social and political context, they are a great challenge for this population. Although the immigrant tries to face them, they become toxic stressors for them. Therefore, interactions between parents-children and their family dynamics are affected by stressors associated with the migration process. One of the most worrying is immigrant's emotional health and well-being. There are international reports that refer to the high level of anxiety and depression experienced by immigrants and their families. This could increase the likelihood that children will become to intensify maladaptive behaviors. There are some theoretical models that point to the training of the practices of parents, inserted in the Theory of Learning Social Interaction (SIL) and in an ecological model to benefit the results of the child, the adolescent and the adult from different social roles. Therefore, the methodology about literature review could be one option to manage it. The objective was to identify the strategies reported in the literature to guide and strengthen the practices of the families of Latino immigrants (in particular Mexican families), encouraging a process of learning and training to cope them. This propose is one way to learn to parents, insert them into a community of cohesion, which can teach their children more effectively and they learn to manage the stress for acculturation. Unfortunately, this proposition is theoretical too, although it has evidence of the voices of different investigations done in the last 10 years.Keywords: Emotional-health, Well-being, Immigrants, Program, Model, Literature Review.
Cerca de 232 millones de personas en el mundo residen fuera de su país de nacimiento (oit, 2013). La búsqueda de nuevas y mejores oportunidades de vida es una de las principales motivaciones de la migración: casi la mitad de los migrantes ha cambiado de residencia por motivos laborales, quienes una vez ubicados, con frecuencia buscan que su grupo familiar más cercano también lo haga, lo que promueve más emigración desde los países de origen y fomenta las denominadas redes migratorias.La demanda por trabajadores calificados y no calificados en varios de los actuales países de destino de la migración internacional se ha incrementado debido a que la población -y por tanto, la fuerza de trabajo-envejece rápidamente. De aquí que diversos especialistas prevean el continuo aumento de la migración laboral en el mundo. En los países de origen, la falta de empleos y condiciones de trabajo digno, así como las crecientes desigualdades de ingreso, tanto entre los países como en el interior de ellos, propicia la emigración (oit, 2013). Si la migración laboral se incrementa, también lo hará aquella motivada por reunificación familiar, lo que permite predecir que este fenómeno seguirá presente en el mundo como lo ha estado a lo largo de la historia de la humanidad.México es país de origen, tránsito, destino y retorno de numerosos grupos migrantes. Desde principios del siglo XX, el rol significativo
