Abstract

This essay explores family dynamics in Panama, focusing on how they influence individual development and the socialization of young people. Through interviews with five subjects from the Panamanian upper middle class, parenting patterns, values, and expectations that shape family identity are identified. The importance of communication and conflict resolution in the family context is highlighted, as well as the pressure that some values ??can exert on individuals, such as the expectation of continuing education. In addition, the refusal of young people to form their own families is addressed, reflecting changes in traditions and gender roles. The theoretical framework is based on psychological narrative concepts to understand how family stories give meaning to individual experiences.
