Abstract:
The relationships between parents and children are a concern in our society, even more so in times of crisis such as conflictual divorce, judiciary protection of the child, imprisonment or mental illness of one parent. In these extreme cases, maintaining the bond between the child and his/her parents is complex. The right of access is no longer exercised or badly, or sporadically, conflictually indeed even dangerously. In response to these issues, new professional answers have come out ; they have been called: visits in a neutral venue, visits with a third party, supervised, accompanied, regulated, protected, therapeutic visits. The vagueness of the lexis is constant including the judges who speak about: right of access, access with a third party, accompanied access. If the emphasis on the concept of right is constant, the modes of the exercise of this right fluctuate from one judge to another. Is it a question of the exercise of a simple inalienable right, of mediatizing, of controlling or educating? To answer these questions we have embarked on a research by interviewing all the actors of these visits: the judges, the professionals, the parents, the children. Studies which allow children to speak out and start from their experience to find the positive and the negative aspects of the singular organization of these family bonds are rare. The paper we are submitting aims to make visible a line of assessment which has often remained unthought of.
