Habilidades sociais de mães de jovens e adultos com Síndrome de Down
2021
The work context requires complex interpersonal relationships and in people with disabilities this aspect can be a challenge. As the family plays an important role in teaching and maintaining these relationships, mothers of young people and adults with Trisomy 21 were chosen for the present study to understand how their social skills can relate to their children's life trajectory. Five mothers of young people and adults who were in the labor market participated in the research. As a data collection instrument, an inventory of social skills and a questionnaire were used. The results scored good repertoires of social skills in three mothers. As for the life trajectory, all mothers received the diagnosis after the birth of their children, who underwent therapies with other professionals. Mothers reported that their children communicate satisfactorily, despite having delayed language, and most attended regular school. In the aspects of social interaction, it was reported that young people and adults have no difficulties. The present study is considered to have contributed to the suggestion of future interventions with this population.
