Abstract

This study was aimed to examine the impact on the parents whose kids were sexually abused. Two methods were used for the phenomenological analysis including van Manen`s hermeneutical and Giorgi`s descriptive analysis. The results demonstrated that parents experienced a completely intolerable situation in the separation from their kids. The separation allowed them to escape from the entrapment, but gave them a feeling of hopelessness. During their separation, they felt home as an empty nest and the period was very painful to them. In conclusion, assailants should be isolated from the local community and community and comprehensive and multi-stepwise programs should be made for the parents.
