Common Learning

The urgency of developing an alternative program for training candidates for family uniforms and child custody is justified by the need to: accelerate the process of training such candidates in case of difficulties in completing study groups; to acquaint participants with all forms of family upbringing, adoption, childcare services in order to make further conscious choices about the form that is most acceptable for candidates and to which they are most prepared; save resources needed to prepare candidates to avoid duplication of common learning topics. The purpose of the article is to reveal the features of such a combined program and prove its effectiveness. Research methods applied: analysis of scientific literature on the topic of research, observation, survey of candidates for family education and foster carers. The combined modular program is a new normative document that outlines the range of knowledge, skills and abilities to be acquired by candidates for foster parents, foster parents, guardians / trustees, adoptive parents, foster carers for quality care and upbringing of foster / adopted children. The peculiarity of the Program is that it contains joint classes of candidates for foster parents, foster parents, guardians / trustees, adoptive parents, foster carers, and specialized classes for individual groups of participants. The program focuses on the formation of the competence of foster parents, foster parents, guardians/custodians, adoptive parents, foster parents to protect the rights of the child, establishing effective communication with the child and his biological or potential parents, finding the most effective forms and methods of influencing emotional state child, behavior, its correction, rehabilitation. Its total duration of implementation is 13 days, of which: 7 days - joint classes for all participants. The program is implemented in the format of trainings. Conclusions on the effectiveness of the program were made based on the results of a survey of participants (candidates for family education) during 2020-2021 in the Ternopil region on the experimental program.

The objective. The purpose of the empirical study presented was the study of social perception and the identification of structurally-substantive features of the mental image of the adopted child in foster parents. Background. The transition to the ubiquitous family arrangement of orphans and the preparation of legislation providing for the adoption of foster parenting as a new profession of a pedagogical profile (“social educator”), as well as the introduction of mandatory psychological testing of foster parents, has revealed the special practical significance and relevance of scientific research related to selection and candidate training. Study design. The work examined the structure of socio-perceptual ideas about the adopted child from adoptive parents, depending on the form of adoption and the number of children adopted by the family for upbringing. The presence of structural relationships and statistical differences was determined using the methods of correlation and comparative analysis. Participants. Foster parents were examined exercising guardianship on the basis of an employment agreement (“social educator”), as well as foster parents who have family ties with adopted children and who exercise guardianship in the form of “blood guardianship” (“blood guardians”). Total 110 people. In the course of data processing and analysis, the entire sample was divided into the following groups: 1. a group of social educators who adopted 1—2 foster children into the family (N=48); 2. a group of social educators who have adopted 3 or more children into the family (N=30); 3. group of “blood guard¬ians” (N=32). Measurements. To identify the structure and content of the perceptual image of the adopted child, a verbal version of the SOCHI technique was used AND V.L. Sitnikova. Results. An analysis of the component profiles of the perceptual image of the “adopted child” in different categories of foster parents showed that they are identical in structure. In the hierarchy of the structure of the image, the leading components are the “Social”, “Activity” and “Behavioral” components. A meaningful analysis of the adoptive child’s perceptual image made it possible to identify structural and semantic units (image components) in the semantic space of adoptive parents that reflect the child’s value attitude to life in a foster family (component “Family Value”) and the presence of bad habits and addictions (component “Bad habits”). This determined the structural specificity of the perceptual image of the “adopted child” in social educators and blood guardians and its difference from the structure of the child’s image in ordinary parents. Intergroup comparative analysis showed that social educators who have adopted 3 or more children into a family more often single out characteristics of a child that are important for interaction in the “child-adult” system; they more often note the attitude of the adopted child towards life in the family, the attitude of the child towards the authority of an adult, as well as the presence of bad habits and addictions in the child. Conclusions. The results were obtained that showed structurally meaningful features of the perceptual image of the adopted child in foster parents with different numbers of children and different forms of guardianship — social educators and blood guardians.

The presence of adopted children in the family allows for a high level of emotional bonding, which no longer separates one another. So, in time the adopted child can be counted as the person who deserves the property of foster parents after death. This is the result of what happened in the later days. In relation to the problem in this study, that the existence of the adopted child above has a position on the inheritance of treasures. According to Javanese customary law, although the child's appointment does not decide the child's relationship with the parent and adopted child does not become the child of the adoptive parents, but the adopted child is entitled to the inheritance of both the parents and the adoptive parents. Under Islamic law, although it is clear that Islam cannot accept the existence of an adopted child on his or her position on the inheritance of adoptive parents. However, KHI which is a legal written law that is applied as a special guideline for Muslims in resolving all legal issues including the position of the adopted child, in article 209 KHI explained that the adopted child is entitled to receive a testament of a general order of 1/3 from the heritage property of foster parents

This research was written with the background to find out how Islamic law responds to the issue of adoption, the rights obtained by adopted children and their position in inheritance. This research is a normative juridical research based on library data. The results of the study found that adoption in the perspective of Islamic law does not recognize adoption which makes it an absolute biological child, but the fulfillment of their rights such as clothing, food and education must still be fulfilled by adoptive parents. Regarding the position in inheritance, the child does not have the right to the inheritance of the adoptive parents, but may get a will not more than one third (1/3) of the assets left behind.

AbstractThe first aim of the current study was to examine the latent structure of attachment states of mind as assessed by the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) among three groups of parents of children at risk for insecure attachments: parents who adopted internationally (N= 147), foster parents (N= 300), and parents living in poverty and involved with Child Protective Services (CPS;N= 284). Confirmatory factor analysis indicated the state of mind rating scales loaded on two factors reflecting adults’ preoccupied and dismissing states of mind. Taxometric analyses indicated the variation in adults’ preoccupied states of mind was more consistent with a dimensional than a categorical model, whereas results for dismissing states of mind were indeterminate. The second aim was to examine the degree to which the attachment states of mind of internationally adoptive and foster parents differ from those of poverty/CPS-referred parents and low-risk parents. After controlling for parental age, sex, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, (a) internationally adoptive parents had lower scores on the dismissing dimension than the sample of community parents described by Haltigan, Leerkes, Supple, and Calkins (2014); (b) foster parents did not differ from community parents on either the dismissing or the preoccupied AAI dimension; and (c) both internationally adoptive and foster parents had lower scores on the preoccupied dimension than poverty/CPS-referred parents. Analyses using the traditional AAI categories provided convergent evidence that (a) internationally adoptive parents were more likely to be classified as having an autonomous state of mind than low-risk North American mothers based on Bakermans-Kranenburg and van IJzendoorn's (2009) meta-analytic estimates, (b) the rates of autonomous states of mind did not differ between foster and low-risk parents, and (c) both internationally adoptive and foster parents were less likely to be classified as having a preoccupied state of mind than poverty/CPS-referred parents.

Legal Fact

Adoption is the preferred form of placement of a child without parental care in a family. The advantage of this form of placement is its permanent nature. In addition, the legal rela-tionship arising between the adoptive parent and his or her ancestors and the adopted child and his or her descendants is equivalent to a parental relationship. Like parental legal relation-ships, the legal relationship between adoptive parents and adoptees is presumed to be perpetual. Unlike other entities raising a child without parental care, adoptive parents may give the adopted child a new name and change the date and place of birth. The legal composition giving rise to a family legal relationship between the adoptive parent and his or her ancestors and the adopted child and his or her descendants is the consent of a number of persons. An enforceable court order for the adoption of a child is a confirming legal fact. It con-firms that the consent of all persons and authorities has been obtained and the child has been placed in the adoptive family. The question arises regarding the consent of the child's parents to his adoption. The con-sent to the adoption is equal to their renunciation of the child, which does not contradict the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Nevertheless, the rules of the Family Code on adop-tion should not initiate a parent's renunciation of his/her child. A child has the right to live and be brought up in his or her own family and to know his or her parents. If a parent relinquishes his or her child, the parental rights should first be removed and then the child should be put up for adoption without his or her consent. The current legal provisions on adoption have other inaccuracies, which are discussed in this article.

Quality Medical Care

Access by all children to high-quality medical care must be the goal of all pediatricians. There are many reasons why all of this care cannot in the foreseeable future be given by pediatricians. These include factors of geography, economics, family education, and comfort, and episodic versus continuity medical care, as well as aggregate manpower figures. Dr. Hoekelman's presentation (Pediatrics 59:315, March 1977) addresses the issue, but his argument is poorly served by the undocumented statement that "there are no data to show that pediatricians do a better job in delivering primary care to children than do family practitioners."
