Resumen
Descripción
Este artículo propone una problematización sobre la dimensión moral de la relación institución-familia-joven
en torno a la experiencia de la tutela estatal y las diversas sensibilidades
morales que ésta activa. Para ello se parte de la presentación de una historia de vida que
recorre la trayectoria institucional un joven1
, ex residente de un Hogar Convivencial2
para
adolescentes varones, a quien luego de un acontecimiento conflictivo la institución decide
egresar tras una prolongada residencia. La situación suscitó una controversia centrada en la
categoría de responsabilidad, entendida aquí como obligación por el cuidado y la protección
de la persona menor de edad. Se recuperan los sentidos en tensión entre Francisco, su mamá
y parte del equipo institucional sobre las competencias y límites que los actores se atribuyen
a sí mismos y entre sí respecto de a quién y cómo corresponde la responsabilidad por el cuidado
y la protección de los jóvenes en situación de tutela.
This article proposes a problematization on the moral dimension of the institution-family-young relationship regarding the experience of state tutelage and the diverse moral sensibilities activated by it. To that end, we present a life story recovering the institutional trajectory of a young, former resident of a Dwelling Home for adolescent boys, whom the institution decides to expel after a prolonged residence due to his involvement in a conflict. This situation sparked a controversy about the category of responsibility, understood here as the obligation to care and protect a minor. We recover the senses in tension between Francisco, his mother and part of the institucional team concerning the faculties and limits that the actors attribute to themselves and between each other regarding whom (and how) is responsible for caring and protecting young people at tutelage.
