Families that generate and regenerate

Abstract

In the current social context, characterized by the presence of increasing areas of vulnerability and

by the contraction of supports of proximity and solidarity, is the family still a relational place that

makes human Beings human (Bronfenbrenner, 2010)? Through a pedagogical anthropology based

on the person and the environment as a network of participatory relationships (Milani, 2018), the

article will present advocacy as a pedagogical modality for vulnerable families aimed at selfadvocacy.

In addition, it will reflect on the family as a generative and regenerative relational

intervention and form of closeness and solidarity between families on the social level. An inclusive

and supportive society (Lacharité, 2014), in fact, promotes forms of collaboration between families

in view of hosting "making kin - and exercising care for others - making kind" (Haraway, 2016,

103). The pedagogical categories of co-parenting and shared social parenting will then be explored.
