Parental violence and family’s psychological support needs

Abstract

Parental abuse has serious consequences on child psychological and emotional development. Often, the child is exposed to parental abuse, which leads to behavioral disorders. Therefore, one of the strategies adopted to help the child overcome this crisis, is family support which seems to be the most appropriate, insofar as it helps the child to overcome this traumatic stage through to his/her needs and desires. Then, family psychological support is a therapeutic way to put an end to the mistreatment practiced on the child by informing parents of the possibility of adopting better educational attitudes, instilling in them better development knowledge and thereby improving their relationship with their child. Thus, family support is an efficient therapeutic tool to face family difficulties
