A alienação parental como ferramenta para encobrir o abuso sexual de crianças e adolescentes em contextos de vulnerabilidade

This course conclusion article investigates how parental alienation can be used to facilitate or cover up the sexual abuse of children and adolescents in contexts of high social, economic and emotional vulnerability, in cases of rape of a vulnerable person within the family. The main objective is to explore the relationship between these two serious issues, highlighting how parental alienation can increase the risk of sexual abuse. The research examines the concepts and legal implications of parental alienation and rape of vulnerable people, also considering the impact of conditions of hyper-vulnerability in the family in the perpetuation of these crimes. The theoretical foundation covers legislation on parental alienation and sexual abuse, the characteristics of hyper-vulnerable families and the interaction between these phenomena. The methodology is based on a bibliographic review. The results highlight the urgent need for public policies and integrated interventions to address the catastrophic combination of parental alienation and sexual abuse. The study suggests that an interdisciplinary approach can significantly improve protection and intervention in cases of abuse in hyper-vulnerable contexts. The conclusions aim to provide support for the formulation of public policies and professional practices, promoting more effective protection for children and adolescents at risk.
