The article examines the experience of parenting a child with a diagnosis of autism with a focus on scripts and intentions in relation to the parents' own childhood experiences of being parented. Five parents participated in a multiple case study design involving in-depth interviews, Adult Attachment Interviews and a parenting intentions scaling task. The findings revealed that all of the parents had experienced significant adverse events in their own childhoods, including trauma and losses. They also expressed intentions to offer parenting that was 'corrective' in terms of providing a better emotional environment for their children. Their corrective attempts and also intentions to repeat positive aspects of being parented were moderated by unconscious aspects of their early childhood experiences and also by the autistic features of their children. The interplay between early embodied experiences, theories of autism, parenting experiences and intentions is discussed along with clinical implications.
本文探讨了育儿经历，重点关注父母自身童年被养育经历与育儿脚本和意图的关系。五位父母参与了一项多案例研究设计，包括深入访谈、成人依恋访谈和育儿意图量表任务。研究结果显示，所有父母在自己的童年都经历过重大的不良事件，包括创伤和丧失。他们还表示希望提供“纠正性”的育儿方式，为孩子提供更好的情感环境。他们的纠正尝试和重复积极养育方面的意图受到他们早期童年经历的无意识方面以及孩子自闭症特征的调节。本文还讨论了早期体现经验、自闭症理论、育儿经验和意图之间的相互作用以及临床意义。
