The Quality Of The Relationship Between Mother And Child And Its Impact On The Child’s Adaptation To His Illness - A Clinical Study Of Five Cases Of Kidney Failure
Abstract
This study aims to reveal the quality of the relationship with the mother of a child and its impact on the child suffering from renal failure facing his illness. The researcher applied the clinical approach to the case study, relying on the clinical interview, clinical observation, and the life narration technique on five cases of mothers with their children suffering from terminal renal failure. The research hypothesis was tested. Which states that the quality of the relationship with the mother of a child affects the confrontation of a child with renal failure who is undergoing blood filtration for his disease. The results of the study found that the methods of mothers dealing with their children with renal failure ranged between flexibility, severity, and neglect. In contrast, all the children’s strategies in general were based on Irritability and avoidance. In light of these results, we suggested that there be a positive and effective way to announce the illness to the mother and follow up with her psychologically through psychological support sessions and direct her on how to deal with her infected child, which would benefit the mother-child duo and allow the mother to adopt a coping style that allows the child to confront his illness positively and accept it.
