Abstract

The aim of this article is to analyze what happens with family life, emphasizing some nuances of the care  dynamics and material and affective support, in families of nine municipalities in the Colombian Coffee Triangle  area, where many parents migrate abroad for labor reasons and have to leave their sons and daughters with  relatives, being them dependent children or adolescents. The basis for the information provided in this article  arises from partial results of the research project:”International migrant fathers or mothers: Implications for  the economy and family interaction” which includes the following sections: introduction, methodology, families’ profiles, characterization of care in the family, discussion and bibliography.
