Abstract(s)
O estudo da Violência Filioparental (VFP) cometida por filhos adultos num contexto de violência doméstica (VD), que coabitem com os seus progenitores, pessoas vulneráveis em razão da idade é um fenômeno de grande importância, negligenciado pela comunidade científica, havendo uma carência significativa de pesquisas e desconhecimento da realidade no nosso País.
Este estudo pretende contribuir para uma melhor compreensão da dimensão da violência filioparental que ocorre num quadro de VD. Foram analisados 5433 casos de VD ocorridos no Distrito do Porto no ano de 2019 e 2020, identificando-se 210 casos de VFP. Verificou-se que a VFP cometida por filhos adultos em contexto de VD apresenta uma percentagem relativamente baixa. Observou-se que o percentual de ocorrência é predominantemente do sexo feminino com aumento da casuística no sexo masculino. As ocorrências conhecidas chegaram ao conhecimento das autoridades a pedido da vítima e ocorrem, predominantemente, no interior da sua residência particular. Os tipos de VFP mais reportados foram a violência física e a psicológica/emocional. Contrariamente ao que seria de esperar, 13.8% das vítimas revelaram ter sofrido violência económica.
O presente estudo vem demonstrar a necessidade de um novo olhar sobre um fenómeno oculto, o que pode ser até confundido com o crime de maus-tratos, o que reclama uma reflexão sobre a definição do conceito do que é a VFP, quando cometida por filhos adultos, em contexto de violência, até pelas particularidades que encerra.
The study of Child-to-Parent Violence (CPV) committed by adult children within a context of domestic violence (DV), cohabiting with their elderly parents, who are vulnerable due to age, is a significantly important phenomenon. It has been overlooked by the scientific community, leading to a notable lack of research and understanding of the reality in our country. This research aims to provide a better insight into the scope of CPV occurring within a DV framework. A total of 5433 DV cases from the Porto District in 2019 and 2020 were analysed, with 210 instances of CPV identified. It was observed that the prevalence of CPV perpetrated by adult children within a DV setting is relatively low. The primary victim tends to be women; however, current studies indicate a rising number of male victims. Known incidents were reported to the authorities predominantly at the victim's request and mainly took place within their private residence. The most frequently reported types of CPV were physical and psychological/emotional violence. Contrary to what one might expect, 13.8% of the victims claimed to have experienced economic violence. This study underscores the necessity for a renewed perspective on this concealed phenomenon, which can be easily mistaken for maltreatment crimes. This calls for a re-evaluation of the definition of CPV, particularly when perpetrated by adult children within a violence context, considering its distinct characteristics.
