Abstract
AbstractThis study intends to provide insights into the lives of children who suffer from chronic pain and of their parents. A qualitative, multi‐modal approach was employed, using the draw, write and tell technique with seven children, and semi‐structured interviews with parents. By illustrating that children are active social agents in the management of chronic pain (even when they are understood by parents as vulnerable), the findings support recent sociological work in the field of childhood health. Indeed, the findings show that children with a chronic condition can take autonomous decisions in relation to disease management even when supervised by parents.
