La detenzione di un genitore è considerata una delle dieci Esperienze Sfavorevoli Infantili. Gli esiti, a breve e lungo termine ad essa associata comprendono problematiche nella dimensione cognitiva, emozionale e sociale dello sviluppo di questi bambini. Il ruolo degli operatori è quello di guidare le famiglie in un percorso psicoeducativo finalizzato ad accrescere nei genitori la comprensione delle principali reazioni manifestate dai bambini e a promuoverne la capacità di gestione, affinchè appaia ridotto l’impatto degli esiti negativi comunemente associati a questa esperienza avversa.;

Keywords:Detenzione, Esperienza Sfavorevole Infantile, bambini, esiti di sviluppo, psicoeducazione.
