Abstract

Introduction: Child-parent violence (CPV), or violence exerted by children against parents,
is a type of domestic violence that has been increasing in recent years. Most studies affirm
that mothers tend to be the most frequent victims. Among the risk factors for victimization,
gender stereotypes, educational style and being a victim of intimate partner violence have been
studied. For this reason, a survey was designed for mothers who were victims of CPV and
mothers who were not victims with the aim of identifying the presence of these risk factors.
Method: A total of 54 mothers who were victims of CPV and 126 mothers who had not
suffered CPV (control group) responded to measures of internalization of gender norms or
mandates based on differential socialization, measures of affection towards the children and
suffering abuse by the partner. Results: statistically significant differences were found in the
variables of affection-communication, but there were no differences between the two groups in
terms of internalization of gender norms or mandates. Almost 50% of the mothers who were
victims of CPV also suffered partner abuse. Conclusions: The relationship between gender
stereotypes and the likelihood of being a victim of CPV in mothers is discussed.
