title: [What we have to prevent: negligence in the health care of children and adolescents].
abstract: The intra-familiar violence affects many children and teenagers as an usual familiar experience. In a theoretic study done aiming to bring contributions to prevent violence, including negligence, some elements emerge as essential of leading to effective help: knowledge, understanding and consequent reflection about its influencing and causing factors. Doing so, our professional nursing experiences as care givers led us to choose the ecosystem reference in its biological, cultural and contextual dynamics as presented by Barudy (1997), since we recognize it as appropriate to the social-economic and cultural conditions of a majority of the Brazilian families.
