Abstract

The objective of this work is to describe how the adolescents had relationship with their relatives before and after the discovery of the pregnancy. Fifteen adolescents from a public maternity that were in the post-partum period participated fo the research. A semi-strcutred interview was used as instrument of data collection. Qualitative approach was used for data analysis. Results indicated that the adolescents had a good relationship, but when the pregnancy was revealed they became victims of violent acts by their parents and that dialogue about sexuality and contraception is still distant between parents and children.
