title: [Perception of the family as to how an adolescent takes care of her child].
abstract: This is a qualitative research that had as its objective understand the perceptions of the family on the way the adolescent takes care of this child. As methodology we used phenomenology as a way, a movement that allowed us to learn more about the essence of the phenomenon based on the words of nine subjects that participated in the project. The families showed that there are peculiar characteristics of adolescence that interfere on the way that the adolescent takes care of this child. We also have observed that the family is an essential support for the child care and that, although there are impeding factors, the adolescents overcome the family expectations, conquering autonomy on the care for their children.
