THE RISE OF INTRA-FAMILY TENSIONS FOR CHILDREN DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Abstract

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on family life is asymmetric. The effect of patients' illness has multiple and varied effects on all devices and systems. The mental impairment can occur through direct and / or indirect mechanisms. The premise of restricting activities, income, social contacts and extended family support puts families into difficulty, but these issues are not always correlated with income, social status or education of family members. These inaccuracies are increasingly common in families where there are fewer mechanisms to compensate for these losses felt by society as a whole. The need for acceptance, understanding, appreciation is greater than ever and the examples where each family member can evolve and validate are fewer and fewer. The family should be studied in dynamics in terms of relationships, exercise of tolerance and communication between members within the same family. Acceptance of reality is also very important, acceptance of existential problems in the family. We want to unravel the mechanisms that lead to the rise of intrafamily tensions, especially in terms of disrupting the lives of minors who are part of the changing family and preventing the effects to provide the best opportunities for education and development of children. Due to the pre-extended restrictions imposed by the pandemic, permanent fatigue sets in, the emotional abandonment of family members, each member taking refuges in his own world (possibly even virtual) that offers them more freedom and sometimes power. It was also observed that if the family works in a smaller physical space, there may be elements of aggression, rejection, abuse even among family members, these elements can be prevented with appropriate programs.
