The Undergraduate thesis entitled “The implications of domestic violence in childhood and in children's safety relationships in violent cases” constituted a qualitative bibliographic and documentary research on domestic violence and its threats, either directly or indirect, against children and adolescents. The main objective of the study was to understand the relationship between domestic violence and “violent” children, as well as to assess gender roles in the family scenario; the influence of patriarchy on family relationships; understand childhood in family relationships; characterize the phenomenon of violence in family relationships; and assess the impacts of domestic violence on childhood and on the social life of children. The main categories of our study include: gender, family, childhood and violence. Our CBT is divided into three chapters. The first chapter deals with gender relations, patriarchy and family and how cultural, social and historical determinations that influence and underlie the process of inequality between men and women assumed in family relationships and in the public environment.

Finally, as multiple expressions of violence and its implications for the social development of children who are assaulted by parents or who witnessed an aggression between their guardians and the coping mechanisms and legal devices to deal with violence.
