RESUMO

The current research performed through study of cases was aimed at to verify the interference of familiar standards and beliefs in the process of differentiation of young women. To compose the group it was chosen seven young women, aged between 18 and 30, all of them attending the COF Center of Orientation to the Family, and residents of Districts in Metropolitan Area of Salvador - Bahia - Brazil, who showed emotional problems associated to family life. Semi-structured interviews with participants, together with participant attendance reports, furnished the empiric basis for the study. The analysis of the collected material was made by gathering the contents into subject themes. Afraid of repeating mothers life history, a detached theme, one developed it into three others: 1. Missing of paternal figure; 2. Lack of credibility concerning to male figure; 3. Sexuality problems and conflicts with the mother. These youths led, preferably, their struggles towards study and professional targets, and felt themselves responsible for sharing economical problems and familiar expenses, and often assuming roles belonging to their parents. At the same time, they showed trends to isolation, restricted circle of friends, and avoided affective involvement. Overloaded by these situations and feeling incapable to deal with them, these youths were hardly hit by the incidence of psychosomatic symptoms that exposed the dramatic conflicts they were living with. Hence one concluded that the liberalization possibility open to new generations within an urban and individualistic society conflicts, in these cases, with the still traditional ideals where the standards and beliefs point towards a logic of reciprocity and solidarity from relatives laces, i.e. the collective commitment surpasses the individualistic one, meaning that the whole (the family) overcomes the parts (family members).
