Resumo: |
The objective of this qualitative research was to understand the meanings attributed by parents about the diagnosis and treatment of their child's ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). In Brazil, ADHD was little known until the 1990s, when children with difficult behaviors at home and at school, who had learning difficulties or were easily distracted, were often seen as “lazy”, “disinterested”, “strange” or “restless”. Since the 2000s, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder has become one of the most discussed diagnostic categories in different areas of knowledge and in society in general. As a result, two interrelated phenomena stand out in today's society: ADHD in the DSM-5 and drug treatment. This study is not limited to the child's medical diagnosis, but also addresses the diagnostic criteria that promote psychotropic drug marketing techniques, as well as reports from fathers and mothers of children with ADHD who work full time, facing an excess of atypical activities. of modern society. The theoretical support provided the necessary basis and articulation to explore the problem presented. The research involved the participation of seven people, including fathers, mothers and guardians. In total, there are five families who have a child aged between 6 and 11 diagnosed and undergoing treatment for ADHD. The results showed that: 1) parents or guardians adhere to medication to treat their child's hyperactive behavior, since medical diagnosis, in general, is the first resource for treatment; 2) parents or guardians see school as an important space for the socialization of their child with ADHD; 3) parents or guardians dedicate themselves to caring for the child, taking into account the social context in which they are inserted. A semi-structured interview with fathers, mothers or guardians, in addition to a field diary, allowed the researcher to record her impressions during the research. The data showed that the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD tend to cause concern in parents or guardians due to the severity of the problem that arises in the family dynamics. It is hoped that the results of this research will serve as a basis for continuing further studies on the topic in question. |
