Plain-language summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the family's protective approach to the functioning and disease course of children with cystic fibrosis (CF) to determine whether there are possible negative effects. There will be an alternative viewpoint offered to clinicians regarding the management of CF with outputs of this study.
