This research is conceived in the perspective of highlighting the absence of the father in the family in Haiti, as an alarm signal to psychological facts often neglected in the society. It also aims to use the results obtained to explain how the absence of the father has an effect on the intellectual and personal development of the child, especially on the behavioral traits in a hostile environment. The results showed that they are confronted with all kinds of psychological violence. They live from prostitution, theft, drugs and any other activity that can bring them some money. They suffer from psychological consequences such as Runaway, psychosomatic disorders like headaches, stomach problems, etc. And finally, the guilt-tripping words, the perverse manipulations, the lack of self-esteem, the repressed aggressiveness, from which the difficulty of affirmation, of ambition, and of exploratory curiosity increase enormously. In spite of everything, they have adapted to it by forging a way of life, a culture and a language that are their own.
