Summary/Abstract: This paper illustrates the problems of Roma children through the life of a particular group of emigrants, and looks for the answer how much their ambition, that is behind the undertaking of the emigrants, supported their adaptation to a new social environment. European literature has not really dealt with the emigration of this ethnic group until this time because during the existence of the "iron curtain" until 1990 the migration directed from the east towards the west did not have large dimensions except during the big political upheavals.
