The Swedish strategy for parent support aims at offering all parents supporting activities that should be based on the values expressed in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). A specific subtarget of the strategy is to make parenting programs more available to parents. The aim of this study was to examine if, and how, the books and booklets parents use in six different parenting programs describe the UNCRC and how the texts present societal notions of the child and the parent-child relationship. The texts were examined using a qualitative text analysis and a model describing different dimensions of the UNCRC. The results show that some texts do not describe the UNCRC at all, while some present it but without problematizing and concretizing it. Further, some texts relate family life toa societal context, while some more narrowly focus on the family interaction.
