| Résumé : | Families’ daily lives have been significantly altered during the COVID-19 pandemic. This article proposes a literature review in order to observe how parents have adapted according to their individual marital, family, and social realities and resources. In an ideological context of “parental over-responsibility,” the pandemic has amplified social pressure and other demands on parents. Numerous studies have indicated that parents felt high levels of stress, anxiety, and exhaustion, in particular mothers who often had to bear the double burden during this difficult period: a professional life as well as managing family affairs. In such a context, parents were at risk of engaging in overprotective parenting that can undermine children’s autonomy and well-being, in particular among adolescents. Positive consequences were also identified among some parents, such as a better work-family balance and more balanced co-parenting. As such, some parents had difficulties with additional pressures during the pandemic, while others coped positively. Their ability to adapt could prove to be a valuable resource for future potential crises. |
