Abstract:

The objective of this article is to problematize the denominations of negligence directed at families in the context of practices of care considered insufficient or inadequate for children and adolescents. The reflection is part of a previous study that analyzed how the concept of negligence is defined and applied in national academic productions and indicated that most of the cases of negligence against children are attributed to the family sphere. The present discussion seeks to consider families in their plurality. It is a qualitative study, developed in an interpretive anthropological perspective. The results indicate that there are accusatory labels and serious omissions in relation to family settings, which reinforce the complexity of defining a situation as neglect: families can reproduce, practice or suffer neglect.
