Author(s): Elżbieta Cygnar,Marek Mierzyński,Maria Merklinger-Soma / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2017

The institution of the family seems to be the most representative and authoritative community of people where thought currents and social phenomenon of contemporary times are focused like in the lens. In the course of reflection about the dynamic structure of this institution, we can see the presentation ofthe function of the family firstly captured and then presented planes of its analysis. The numerous family is particularly perceived as the community where all the values are imparted and tradition is cherished. This renders that extremely strong interpersonal relationships are created and they give a sense of security and mutual solidarity. Both the process of development of the communication in this type of family and propinquity of the members of the family in the psychological aspect not only integrate its unity but also protect the family effectively against some contemporary dangers such as: reduction of human’s attitudes and aspirations towards hedonism, utilitarianism and conformism. Finally, it also causes positive impulse that leads to some actions which may create the prospects of optimistic and full of hope world in the future.

Česká rodinná politika: Quo vadis?

Author(s): Jaroslav Vostatek / Language(s): Czech Issue: 3/2021

The article aims to prove and rectify the comparable data about the length of the paid maternity and paternity leaves (full wage equivalent) and to analyse the reform measures of the Czech government and the current family benefits reform proposals. We also pay attention to proposals of the pension commissions. Czech family policy respects some weaknesses of the family benefits, but it does not strive to realize a major comprehensive reform. Similarly to other post-Communist countries a „refamiliarization“ of this policy has taken place and it resulted, together with the construct of the parental allowance, to a big gender wage gap. It has no substantial impact on the old-age pensions of mothers due to unparalleled equalization of the pensions (hidden big flat pension). The analyses are bound for the use of the social-democratic (universal) welfare regime, including the application of the universal child benefits and the right to nursery care from the age of 1, for a small or no fee.

The Legislative Framework for the Protection of Children and a Comparison of the Czech, Slovak and Austrian Concepts

Author(s): Ivana Olecká,Patricia Dobríková,Adéla Lemrová,Regina Scheitel / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2021

The aim of the text is to compare the legislative forms of child protection in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Austria, and to define the basic congruities and differences in the legal concepts of these countries. The methodology of the article is based on a comparative analysis of legal documents of the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic and Austria. The Czech and Slovak versions of the socio-legal protection of children are comparable in many aspects. Significant differences were identified in the Austrian version which is, among other things, reflected in the statistical records of the number of people sentenced for maltreatment of a person in their charge. Differences are evident in terms of the composition (structure) of the relevant legislation: the Czech and Slovak versions are comparable, whereas Austria has formally incorporated children's rights into the constitution and has transferred the main competences concerning child protection and other socio-legal tools to the country's federal states. The potential of the detailed analysis of the efficiency of the child legal protection systems in the Czech Republic and Slovakia is limited since no statistical data is available in these countries that can be compared and that separately records maltreated adults and maltreated minors.

THE CONCEPT OF MARITAL PATERNITY PRESUMPTION IN MODERN FAMILY LAW

Author(s): Milena Milošević / Language(s): English Issue: 01/2021

This paper deals with positive domestic and comparative international laws on establishing and contesting the marital presumption of paternity. It is evident that these rules derive from the provisions that regulate marriage. What makes them complex and diverse is that in certain legal systems the moments from which the presumption of paternity of the mother’s spouse begins and ends are determined differently in relation to the moment of conclusion of marriage and the cause of termination of marriage. The aim of this paper is to point out different possibilities when stipulating the rules on establishing and contesting marital presumption of paternity and how each of these possibilities reflects on the modern concept of parenting and the child’s right to know his or her origin. It is from this point of view that the relevant norms of domestic family legislation have been valued.

The family hasalways been and will be the central category of social life, around which processes, social phenomena orreligious norms are cumulated, but the changing conditions of life of families are generating a necessity tomonitor the quality of life of families and look at them as a whole and individually.

Oduvijek poput zlata

Djeca su oduvijek smatrana nečim najljepšim što s enekome može dogoditi. Šteta što neki ljudi ne cijene to što imaju dijete i onda dođe do lošeg ponašanja roditelja nad djecom, ali ono što svaki čovjek mora znati je da su sva djeca jednako važna.

L’HYPERSOMNIE COMME SYMPTOME SURSIGNIFIANT DE LA DEPRESSION

Author(s): Sarah Mezaguer / Language(s): French Issue: XII/2011

Tiredness is a common symptom of most of pathologies, but it seemsthat there’s an even more tight link between sleep and depression. Theexhaustion the depressive feels isn’t necessarily a consequence of a loss ofsleep. At the contrary, it seems that some of them always need to sleep moreand more. Whereas the depressive suffers from a loss of energy, he can’t helpthinking about his suffering like a snake biting his own tail, so the need to sleepover and over may be a soothing response to the noise he feels in the inside.But on the other hand, this need to sleep may be even more, like an epiphanyof what the depressive is willing to, without always acknowledging it. Indeed, thefall into sleep realizes in a fantasmatic way a willing to die.

КОХЛЕАРНИ ИМПЛАНТ: ИСКУСТВА РОДИТЕЉА ГЛУВЕ И НАГЛУВЕ ДЕЦЕ

Author(s): Marina N. Radić Šestić,Mia M. Šešum,Ljubica S. Isaković,Biljana Milanović Dobrota / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 2/2021

The paper examines the experiences of parents of deaf and hard of hearing children related to the decision-making process about the cochlear implant, as well as their satisfaction with the outcomes of cochlear implantation. The research was carried out on the sample of 77 examinees of both sexes whose children are rehabilitated at “Children’s House” at the Clinical Hospital Centre in Belgrade, as well at schools for deaf and hard of hearing children in Kragujevac, Subotica and Niš. The questionnaire entitled Children with Cochlear Implants: Parental Perspectives was used for the purpose of the research. The results of the research indicate that parents had moderate difficulties in the process of deciding on cochlear implantation and that they were relatively satisfied with the outcome of the implantation. The age of children and the age at which the cochlear implantation has been performed are not related to the process of deciding on cochlear implantation, although this variable correlates with the contentment with the outcome of the implantation.

Dynamický pohled na bezdětnost perspektivou kvalitativního longitudinálního výzkumu

Author(s): Hana Hašková / Language(s): Czech Issue: 6/2021

Taking the longitudinal qualitative research perspective, the article contributes to the understanding of the increase in childlessness in the Czech Republic by capturing the experiences and identities of childless persons and by expanding upon the mechanisms that lead to the long-term persistence of childlessness or changes in reproductive identities and plans. The research is based on the analysis of repeated problem-centered interviews (usually after 11−12 years) with women and men who were childless in the first wave of interviews and either preferred permanent childlessness, or were undecided about parenting, or wished to enter parenthood in the future, but still felt too young to start a family, or postponed childbearing due to various obstacles. Over the long term, the childless identities of those who preferred lifelong childlessness or who remained undecided about parenthood proved to be the most stable. The life trajectories of those who postponed parenthood and wished for it in the future more often included transitions to parenthood or other childless identities, including involuntary or permanent childlessness, which was often connected with the domino effect of events and the influence of linked lives. The repeated interviews provided new insight into the various relationships between reproductive and partner trajectories and served to shed light on how voluntarily childless couples maintain the consensus on the choice of a childfree life. The results suggest that family policy, while fully respecting the choice to lead a childfree life, should also facilitate pathways to parenthood at older reproductive ages.

Author(s): Jana Bernoldová,Marija Zulić,Iva Strnadová,Kateřina Sedláková / Language(s): Czech Issue: 6/2021

The aim of the research was to analyse the perspectives of sexual trustees on supporting young people with intellectual disabilities for relationships and parenthood. The six participating sexual trustees adopted a respectful and open attitude to the sexuality of their clients. With respect to working with sexuality and relationships, the sexual trustees considered important to put in place an organisational framework and equip themselves with the relevant competencies. The family planning of their clients was not addressed at the organisation level, and the interviewed sexual trustees described conflicting feelings related to the support of their clients with concern to their desire to have children. Moreover, the trustees were felt societal pressure to prevent conception associated with the topic of family planning.

Wybrane aspekty systemowego rozumienia rodziny

Author(s): Przemysław Żebrok / Language(s): Polish Issue: 4/2021

The study presents selected aspects of the systemic understanding of the family. Currently, the systems approach is quite widely used in many sciences. There are many indications that modern science has found an important methodological tool in explaining complex phenomena and processes in the theory of systems. According to systemic reasoning, the family is viewed as a natural system in which complex relationships and interactions take place, creating a network of feedback loops. The family system is relatively open and dynamic, characteristic of living organisms. The family as a system develops with a simultaneous tendency to maintain balance. Nevertheless, it also has properties such as variability and evolution. Another feature of the systems is the existence of a hierarchical organization. The family has a specific structure determined by the system of relations, roles and positions of its individual members. It is made up of smaller structural units, or subsystems. These elements interact with each other, and each person depends on the rest of the family. This means that a change taking place in one unit causes changes in the entire family system.

CHILDREN IN CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTIONS AND THE RIGHT TO COMMUNICATE WITH THEIR FAMILIES DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Author(s): Ana Batrićević,Milica Kolaković-Bojović / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2021

Triggered by the proactive approach of Serbian Penal Administration and its decision to, supported by the German NGO Help e.V, procure the ICT equipment to substitute in-person family visits and ensure regular communication during the lockdown, the authors decided to assesstheimpact of this pilot project on the right of the children in correctional institutions to communicate with their family members within the scope of the restrictions ordered to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The authors also explored the attitudes of children in those correctional institutions and of the professionals working with them to get additional perspectives. The results showed that this measure significantly contributed to preserving contacts and family relations in the changed environment, although it cannot completely replace family visits and direct contact. Furthermore, the results of the research showed that the lack of IT literacy, but also thedifficult financial and social context of the families of the origin of the children in correctional institutions, remain a significant obstacle for bridging the gap in family connections caused by COVID-19. Finally, the research showed that there is a need to procure more equipment and to increase thefrequency of calls and the time available for communication with the family for all users.

Važnost privrženosti u odnosu roditelj-dijete

Author(s): Senada Mujić,Alisa Divković / Language(s): Bosnian,Croatian Issue: 17/2021

Ideja da su odnosi roditelja i djeteta važni za daljnji razvoj djeteta nije nova. To je vrlo stara ideja koja je kroz historiju plijenila pažnju psihologa, govornika i učenjaka. Bowlbyjev i kasnije Ainsworthov opis privrženosti pomogli su boljoj integraciji ove stare ideje u savremena istraživanja. Njihov opis je također pružio bolje razumijevanje toga kako određeni odnosi mogu biti povoljni za dijete, dok drugi izgleda da štete razvoju djeteta. Odnos između djeteta i roditelja najjača je veza koju osoba može stvoriti u svom životu. Taj odnos koji dijete uspostavlja sa roditeljima njegovo je prvo iskustvo u ranom životu, i toliko je važno da može utjecati na druge odnose do kraja života. Teorija privrženosti Johna Bowlbya daje različita objašnjenja o tome kako vezanost utječe na budući razvoj pojedinaca. Prema teoriji, rana vezanost utječe na buduće odnose oblikujući individualne kognitivne predstave pojedinca o sebi, drugim ljudima i vanjskom svijetu. Mnogo je povezanih faktora u odnosu roditeljdijete. Vrlo je važno razumjeti subjektivna iskustva djece sa roditeljima. Istraživanja pokazuju da sigurna vezanost pozitivno utječe na emocionalni razvoj djeteta i stvara zaštitni faktor u smislu psihološkog zdravlja. Rad na polju intervencija, bračnih odnosa i razvojne genetike sugerira da su smjernice koje su razvili Bowlby i Ainsworth važne ne samo za bolje razumijevanje razvoja djeteta, već i za prilagođavanje mehanizama funkcioniranja odnosa važnih za cijeli razvoj čovjeka.

Finansijska podrška porodici sa decom – izjednačavanje mogućnosti za kvalitetno roditeljstvo

Author(s): Bojana Dimitrijević / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 26/2021

Successful parenting implies various challenges and high financial costs of raising children. In addition to a significant rise of the material support for the families with children and the increase in numbers of women/mothers eligible for child support and special care funds, the current legal solution contains certain flaws, primarily affecting the parents who concluded their employment contracts immediately prior to the birth of their children. In this article, we are going to assess the possibilities of stimulating and destimulating aspects of new ”The Financial Support for the Families with Children Act ”on the decision to start/expand a family. Special attention is focused on the level of influence of the current and the proposed legal solutions on the creating of long-term conditions for quality parenthood. The key objective of this work is the descriptive analysis of possibilities of achieving equal quality parenthood opportunities and population growth in Serbia, by applying legal provisions in the area of financial support for the families with children.
