This study aims to increase the understanding of the parents' experiences with children sitting at home.

The research method we used was qualitative, with six semi-structured interviews. We chose parents because their children are of primary school age, sitting at home with and without diagnosis. We also took into account the gender of the parents. Empiricism has been analyzed based on Haberma's theory of lifeworld and system world and through the concepts of normality based on Durkheim and the concepts of guilt and shame, where Scheff, Freud, and Lewis have inspired us. In our results, we see a consensus between our interviewees where the experience is that they have not been listened to. The result further shows that the cooperation between home and school is problematic because compulsory education weighs heavily on the role of parents. All interviewees feel that this entails difficult decisions in their everyday lives. We can also see a pattern in our empirical work where professionals do not understand parents' experiences. (Less)
