Abstract

In recent centuries the woman has experienced several achievements related to her way of
being and being in the world, adapting to social, economic, intellectual and political conjunctures. With this spatial occupation of women, the freedom to act and express themselves became more latent, freeing them from compulsory social behaviors. However, the ties remain with some secular patterns, among them, the myth of mothering, which has long been linked to the natural instinct to be a mother. Contrary to this social imposition, the Map of Violence 2015: Homicide of Women in Brazil indicates that children, victims of violence, also have their own mothers as executioners and that the daughters are the most attacked ones. Caring for the caregiver is the salutary possibility of intervention in homes where the
mothering is situation and not vocation. For the elaboration of the article the method of historicalcritical- propositive investigation was used, supported in the bibliographical research.
