De acordo com Almeida (2014), existem para além das famílias nucleares intactas novas tipologias que incluem as monoparentais, reconstituídas e alargadas.…”

“…As novas formas de família exigem a reorganização das relações e dinâmicas familiares e impõem aos pais a redefinição da sua parentalidade e a avaliação da sua conjugalidade.
