Lors de l'épidémie de poliomyélite à Montréal en 1946, la remise de la rentrée scolaire est rapidement devenue un débat public, qui permet d'observer les discours de plusieurs acteurs sociaux qui tentent d'imposer leur autorité dans la gestion de l'épidémie. Cet article rappelle la persistance des jugements des autorités scolaires et médicales quant à la capacité des parents à prendre soin de la santé de leurs enfants, de même qu'il met en lumière le renforcement des parents en tant qu'intervenants sociaux au sein du Québec d'après-guerre. Appréhendée dans son contexte plus large, cette étude de cas permet également d'explorer la valorisation de l'enfance dans la société des années 1940 et de l'immédiat après-guerre. During the 1946 poliomyelitis epidemic in Montreal, the postponement of opening schools rapidly became a public debate that allows us to explore the different views of a series of social actors who attempted to impose their authority in the handling of the epidemic. This article explores the persistence of the judgments made by medical and school authorities around the capacity of parents to take care of their children's health, as well as it sheds light on the reinforcement of parents as social actors in postwar Quebec. Understood in its broader context, this case study also allows us to explore the strong values of childhood in the immediate postwar society.
