The theory of maturation, built by Winnicott, points out the importance of the facilitating environment for the development of the inherited tendencies of the individual. As we study the family in the twenty-first century, we see that the traditional family setting, although still dominant, has performed alongside other settings - recomposed families, extended families, gay families, single parents, among others - where some even that have always existed marginally fewer have the beginnings of a significant increase in this number in the future, due to the recent social and legal recognition. This conference thus aims to discuss the aspects that these new settings need to preserve itself in the midst of changes that make them new, to permit the condition of enabling environment, as well as the aspects of the theory of maturation that contribute to the new families feel potentially enabling the emotional maturity of the individuals within it.
