O confinamento do outro lado do oceano: a experiência de crianças e adolescentes durante a epidemia da Covid-19 na França

The present article presents data that portray the confinement in France during the Covid-19 epidemic, precisely, for the children and youth public. The aim of this study was to provide some elements that make it possible to advance in the understanding of how children and adolescents experienced the experience of confinement in France. The methodology chosen for the development of the research was virtual ethnography. Through the materials published in the French newspapers and on the website of radio France Culture it was possible to have contact with the experiences lived by the families in the confinement. These publications provided subsidies to understand that keeping children and adolescents confined only in the family space, that is, deprived of the unfamiliar place (schools, parks, streets), implies the subjective process as the constitution of a subject, whose progress becomes impossible to happen without moving between these two places.
