Scoring interventions in family relations regarding the care for the child with a chronic condition

“…This study addressed how the fathers participated in this care, and the results revealed that, in the majority of cases, the fathers were involved in various activities of care for the children, such as trips out, playing and basic care, with or without the mother's presence, such as giving baths and feeding. 13 Other investigations have presented results which support those presented above, demonstrating that the fathers show themselves to be fairly involved in activities outside the domestic environment, such as trips out and medical consultations, as well as in daily activities such as giving baths, administering medications, and care with the child's sleep and rest. 16 In relation to the father's participation in the life and care of the child with a chronic condition, it is important to stress that the same cannot be seen as supporting in the care for the child, but that he can be seen as an important member in the child's development, as he influences and is influenced in his direct interaction with his child.…”
