Household food insecurity is linked with exposure to violence and adversity throughout the life course, suggesting its transfer across generations. Using grounded theory, we analyzed semistructured interviews with 31 mothers reporting household food insecurity where participants described major life events and social relationships. Through the lens of multigenerational interactions, 4 themes emerged: (1) hunger and violence across the generations, (2) disclosure to family and friends, (3) depression and problems with emotional management, and (4) breaking out of intergenerational patterns. After describing these themes and how they relate to reports of food insecurity, we identify opportunities for social services and policy intervention.
家庭粮食不安全与一生中遭受暴力和逆境有关，这表明它会代代相传。我们运用扎根理论，分析了对31位报告家庭粮食不安全情况的母亲进行的半结构化访谈，参与者描述了重大生活事件和社会关系。通过多代互动的视角，出现了4个主题：（1）代代相传的饥饿和暴力，（2）向家人和朋友倾诉，（3）抑郁和情绪管理问题，以及（4）打破代际模式。在描述了这些主题以及它们与粮食不安全报告的关系后，我们确定了社会服务和政策干预的机会。
