Abstract

The purpose of this study was to know and analyze the representations and needs of school-age children with neurogenic bladder dysfunction and of their mothers. This is a qualitative study; whose methodology was based on social representations. According to the interposition of empirical end analytical categories, the living and caring are respectively represented by mothers as "a problem" and "all me"; the children, in turn, interpret the differentiated and prejudiced interaction they suffer in the setting they live in as "it is not fair".
