This is a qualitative study grounded in Cultural-Historical Psychology — specifically Vygotsky's Psychology of Art-and articulated with the discussions of Antonio Candido. The study seeks to understand how the narrative and visual elements of the work contribute to the symbolic construction of the experience of loss in childhood, addressing illness, death, and the continuity of bonds in a sensitive and accessible way for children. It is believed that illustrated literature may act as a mediator in the emotional organization of grief, enabling the expression of feelings, the symbolic elaboration of absence, and the resignification of loss, based on the potential of art and literature as a possibility for humanization in the face of experiences of death and grief.

It is shaped by prevailing representations of gender and family that often fail to recognize family structures formed by two mothers. In Brazil, legal recognition of same-sex parenthood and access to assisted reproduction through the Unified Health System (SUS) are relatively recent developments, following a 2013 resolution by the Federal Council of Medicine and a 2011 ruling by the Federal Supreme Court. Nevertheless, significant legal gaps remain, and public access to information on the subject is still limited. Considering that social media has become an important source of information and visibility on a wide range of topics, including health-related issues, this study investigates the discourses produced on social media regarding shared motherhood between two women. The aim is to understand which voices address this topic and what types of content and meanings are conveyed. To this end, YouTube videos were searched using the keywords "lesbian motherhood," "lesbian mothers," and "same-sex motherhood." From the total number of videos retrieved, those in other languages (13), those concerning lesbian motherhood in other countries (2), videos unrelated to the topic (30), and videos with fewer than one thousand views were excluded, given the objective of analyzing the most viewed and accessible content available to the Brazilian public. Duplicate videos were counted only once (3). A total of 65 videos were identified, of which only 23 specifically addressed lesbian motherhood in the Brazilian context. The majority (15 videos) featured lesbian mothers sharing their personal experiences. The remaining eight videos were produced by professionals—including physicians, lawyers, and journalists—and focused on fertility procedures and legal rights. From a qualitative perspective, the main themes emerging from the mothers' narratives included gender and racial discrimination, the lack of preparedness among healthcare professionals and civil registry offices regarding the rights and needs of lesbian mothers, difficulties in accessing assisted reproduction due to the limited availability of services within the SUS and the high costs of private fertility clinics, breastfeeding experiences, family support, among other issues. Notably, these topics are rarely addressed by healthcare professionals or in government-produced informational videos. The findings highlight the need to expand public debate, promote scientific research, strengthen professional training, improve the legal and regulatory framework, and develop healthcare guidelines and access policies that adequately address the formation of families with two mothers and their children.

Morte e luto na História em Quadrinhos Abstract: Death and bereavement are permeated by values, affections, and meanings associated with the historical and sociocultural context. In order to understand different meanings related to these themes and to contribute with subsidies for professional practice in Psychology, this study sought, in the face of the potential of art, especially Literature, to analyze the work A missão dos gatos e de cada bichinho de estimação (Estúdios Mauricio de Sousa, 2007). The analysis of the comic book was conducted through the lens of Cultural-Historical Psychology, particularly drawing on the rich contributions of Vigotski (1999) and following the contributions of Candido (1995). By moving through the words of the characters, death, bereavement, and life were found to be central themes. In the meeting between text and illustration, the expressions of the characters, the use of large capital letters in specific moments, and the chosen words are examples of resources capable of evoking various affections and reflections regarding different meanings of the themes addressed, while also bringing author and reader closer together. Thus, the analysis reinforces the power of the composition between form and content, that is, the power of Art to transform affections and thoughts, promote humanization, and contribute to professional training in Psychology.

The research included 174 individuals who responded to a sociodemographic questionnaire, the APR Financial Stress Scale, and the C-PATHOS Labour instrument (Activity Pathologies). The results indicated significant positive correlations between all dimensions of financial stress and the dimensions of Activity Pathology. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that financial stress explains 34.4% of the total variance in activity pathology. Specifically, the physiological dimension of financial stress was a significant predictor of overload pathology, while the affective and relational dimensions were significant predictors of meaning Pathology. These findings suggest that financial stress constitutes an important risk factor for the development of Pathologies related to work activity, both in terms of physical and mental overload and loss of meaning at work. The study contributes to understanding the impacts of financial stress in the work context and offers insights for developing interventions that consider the financial dimension as a relevant component of worker health.
