Data were gathered through selfreporting measures. The instrument used includes a questionnaire about socio-demographic variables, a questionnaire about parents’ adjustment to the situation and a questionnaire about social support received and provided based on the different sources and types of support. Results: There is a negative and significant relation between satisfaction with support received and provided and the magnitude of disruptions in parents’ lives. Conclusion: Satisfaction with emotional support received from the partner and family, and support provided to these sources, relate to lower disruption in different areas of parents’ lives. These results can have significant practical implications for the psychosocial care provided to parents of children with cancer.
