In this study, twelve guardians of eleven different children with problematic gaming behaviour were interviewed and provided their view of the relationship with the child and their perceived need for support. The guardians were asked to describe the relationship with the child with problematic gaming based on the aspects of transparency, rules/limits, and socialising. The empirical data has been analysed with the help of Aaron Antonovsky's theory of sense of coherence (SOC) and Jürgen Habermas' theory of the public and private sphere. The study's respondents describe difficulties regarding all three components of SOC in relation to the child's problematic gaming but describe the greatest difficulties in relation to manageability. The support the respondents mainly request is an instrumental logic in order to increase manageability but with a simultaneous desire to receive support in a way adapted to the private sphere, which the system is not organised to provide and therefore causes a high degree of frustration among the guardians.
