The global health emergency has forced to incorporating profound changes in all societies on earth in order to reduce the risks associated with the onslaught of coronavirus pandemic. One of the most affected areas, in addition to health, has been education at all levels that, in order not to stop altogether, has resorted to remote or virtual education from the safety of homes. In this kind of teaching, parents had to play a central role, providing the conditions to ensure the quality of the process. However, the complexity of the responsibility and the adverse conditions of confinement during pandemic, are factors that affect family dynamics and determine different degrees of conflict. The present study aimed to explore the characteristics of virtual education from home, as well as the effects of parental perceptions, on family conflict. The results show significant relationships between the way of perceiving the educational problem of children, the emotional exhaustion of the parents and the family´s relational climate.

Keywords : COVID 19; virtual education; parental perceptions; emotional exhaustion; Bolivia.
