The comprehension of the parents' relation with their child's psychotherapy has developed considerably since the beginning of child psychoanalysis, elevating the importance of active participation of family into the patient's treatment, as also the attention of the therapist to unconscious phenomena that occur in this context. This issue refers to a narrative revision of psychoanalytical literature about presence of parents in child psychotherapy, which objective refers to analyze the way contemporaneous authors who work with psychoanalytical perspective understand the parents' role in child psychotherapy. Initially, were consulted books of classic authors in psychoanalysis, and a specific book of more contemporaneous authors about the matter of the parents' role in child psychotherapy. Articles about the same theme were then searched into the scientific electronic basis SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), PePsic (portal of Electronic Psychology Journals) and LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature). Were selected for analysis 19 articles published at online papers. It was verified that the texts approached specially the position of analyst/psychotherapist and the relations established with the patient's parents, being emphasized, mainly, the necessity of receiving the parents' anguishes and their transference directed to the therapist, creating an space of continence, reflection and ressignificance of the child's problem.
