CHILDREN WITHOUT ADEQUATE PARENTAL CARE

Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to present and analyze the forms of care for children without adequate parental care and to show positive and negative sides of placing the children without adequate parental care in homes/institutions. The family is the source of the value system of each individual, it is the support in all those life situations in which the individuals find themselves, either happy or sad situations, the family is the one who supports, encourages, criticizes, directs, etc. Looking from the perspective of a child, family represents a “pattern” according to which he will act. With the disruption of family cohesiveness, the child loses the “pattern” according to which he was supposed to act. The primary emphasis will be put on children who are in homes, children who grow up without proper parental care, children who in a certain way have a different path of growing up, maturing and building themselves as individuals. In situations of disrupted family cohesion that can occur for various reasons, the death of one or both parents, addiction, the influence of external factors to which the individual is unable to react, etc., children are provided with certain alternative accommodation and it is attempted to create a family environment for the child to continue growing and evolving. Following the rights that guarantee all of this, the most common alternative accommodation in BiH is the placement of children in homes/institutions. The records of children placed in homes in BiH will show the current situation in our country regarding children without adequate parental care.
