Violência doméstica contra a mulher: o impacto na percepção dos filhos

Abstract

The present research aimed to describe forms of violence against women, statistics in the country, and how this violent scenario can affect the psychological and behavioral aspects of children. To do so, the study focused on cases of domestic violence against Brazilian women, their cultural history both globally and in Brazil, research data, and similar solutions such as ecological programs implemented in Brazilian schools. The studies encompassed the entire context leading up to the present day, from the Paleolithic period to the military dictatorship and the creation of the Maria da Penha Law (Law No. 11,340/2006). The critical situation of psychological harassment, moral harassment, psychological violence, and domestic violence against women is presented from its roots, such as sexism and patriarchy. In Brazil, there are various similar materials available, and their effectiveness has been proven and approved. This work seeks to demonstrate how a child's perception and curiosity can have positive outcomes and contribute to improving reality. It shows that situations of abuse against women can be adapted to the eyes of children through reframing and artistic freedom combined with design assistance.
