Description
Summary:The link between children’s and parents’ care trajectories and life stories is the focus of this article. Based on my fieldwork carried out in a public hospital children’s psychiatric ward and in families’ home, I question social skill learning conditions at hospital, and these skills’ transferability at home. Articulating my research focus on biomedical, complementary and domestic activities, I shed light on the logics and practices of care implemented by children, parents and health workers or healers. From 2013 to 2015, I spent daily moments observing, discussing and living with families, and I therefore propose that parent and children biographic trajectories enable the transferability of skills and the improvement of suffering situations.
