“…In this context, the father is more present but does not seem to be continuously involved directly in the provision of care; that is, he is, at best, someone who helps his ex-wife, who remains the caregiver effectively in charge of the care and well-being of their children. In our view, while the coexistence of a father with his children is a relevant and appreciable issue (Bernardi, 2017), it does not fully resolve an imaginary that is ruled by the belief that "The one who takes care is the mother" and thus remains distant from egalitarian parental care (Santos et al, 2019).…”

Objective Investigate child care collective imaginaries, a focus justified by the social and family transformations resulting from the massive insertion of women into the labor market. Method The study is organized methodologically from the perspective of concrete psychoanalytic psychology, articulating the use of the psychoanalytic method with relational theorizations. The research involves collective psychological interviews, in which 12 judicial mediators were interviewed through the Thematic Drawing and Story Procedure. Results The psychoanalytical consideration of the material allowed the interpretative production of four affective–emotional meaning fields. Conclusion The general picture indicates that a conservative imaginary prevails in which the best child care is provided by the biological mother in the contexts of both the nuclear family and the matrifocal family while also maintaining a friendly bond with the father.

“…This can be considered as well as a post-modernism movement of parenting and workfamily balance with emphasis on child-focused care together with institutional and social support mechanisms to achieve the desired outcomes of parenting ideals. The practice of egalitarian parenting can be diverse from country to country but the general trajectory points to the same direction [77]. Egalitarianism will prevail in the context of parenting in the twenty-first century.…”

Parenting in Modern Societies

Parenting in the twenty-first century compel among working parents a great deal of effort and balancing act between having a family and at the same time maintaining a good career. The challenges among working parents are on the balancing act of taking care and attending to family needs while becoming successful in chosen career. In the modern-day society where couples have to strive to make both ends met for the needs of the family, the issue and concern for balancing act is really perplexing. In this fast-paced twenty-first century world, such concern for balancing act has just been relegated to the confines of family resolution without the greater society having so much concern of it. However, it is a topic worthy of concern and study as it pervades not only within the realm of family life but as well as on the aspects of productivity and performance of working professional parents. In this paper, seven general themes with underlying discussions were presented. The themes are not exhaustive of the dynamics between parenting and work-family balance. The bottom line is to provide insights, reflection points and points to ponder about the realm of parenting and work-family balance in the twenty-first century.

“…Conforme já discutido, concepções sociais tradicionais a respeito dos papéis da mulher e do homem na família evidenciam um entendimento de que a figura paterna é secundária no contexto familiar, restrita ao provimento financeiro, enquanto a mulher é responsabilizada pelos cuidados parentais (Madalozzo & Blofied, 2015;Pinto et al, 2011). Essas concepções podem contribuir tanto para que muitas mulheres se reafirmem como as principais referências de cuidado para os filhos, sendo a participação dos homens dependente de uma concessão feminina, quanto para muitos homens omitiremse em relação ao envolvimento paterno (Santos et al, 2019). A partir do exposto, é importante considerar de forma sistêmica e multifacetada os múltiplos fatores que podem estar associados ao afastamento paterno ou a não manutenção dos vínculos paisfilhos.…”

As famílias monoparentais femininas compõem, juntamente com as demais configurações familiares, a pluralidade dos arranjos familiares no Brasil. Estas têm sido associadas frequentemente às situações de pobreza ou vulnerabilidade social, em que a mulher, responsável pelo sustento do lar e cuidado dos filhos na ausência do cônjuge, vivencia sobrecarga de funções, dentre outras adversidades. Discursos contemporâneos apontam para a relevância da participação paterna na vida dos filhos. Assim, este estudo qualitativo e exploratório objetivou conhecer os significados atribuídos à paternidade na visão de mulheres responsáveis por famílias monoparentais femininas vivendo em situação de vulnerabilidade social. Participaram 10 mães com filhos crianças que responderam a um questionário sociodemográfico e a uma entrevista semiestruturada. Os dados coletados foram transcritos e submetidos à análise de conteúdo. Identificou-se a percepção de protagonismo materno nas famílias, sendo a ausência paterna sentida no domínio financeiro e disciplinar. O afastamento paterno teve também implicações significativas ao relacionamento coparental, sendo raro o compartilhamento de tarefas entre as mães e os pais ou outras referências da família paterna. Apesar de pouco contarem com o pai das crianças, o distanciamento dos conflitos conjugais foi referido como tendo impactado positivamente o bem-estar de algumas famílias, demonstrando que a participação paterna deve ser pensada em níveis de qualidade e não apenas de presença ou ausência.
