Abstract:

Play is an inherent part of childhood and holds numerous benefits for children’s physical, cognitive, social and emotional development. Play is acknowledged as a right of all children. However, factors such as hurried lifestyles, an emphasis on academic performance, and changes in the basic structure of families, result in a marked reduction in children’s play, especially free or child-directed play. This study focused on children in middle childhood; a life stage during which children’s social environment widens and they are exposed to numerous new learning experiences. They might thus benefi

Magister Artium (Child and Family Studies) - MA(CFS)<br>In South Africa family foster care is the first option of alternative care for children removed from their biological parents, adoptive parents or guardians, due to neglect, abuse or abandonment. Similar to international trends, South Africa prioritises family foster care. However, when the foster care placement disintegrates, children are generally placed in child and youth care centres (CYCCs) in accordance with the South African Children’s Act 38 of 2005.

Abstract:

Children have been shown to respond differently to the hurt that they suffer at the hands of others. Some of these responses involve internalised behaviours (i.e., repression of feelings, bodily symptoms, etc.); whilst others hurt manifest as externalised behaviours, such as physical attacks on others. These may include sexualised behaviours. The latter is particularly common amongst (but not restricted to) children who have been sexually abused (The American Psychological Association, 2001).

Emotional awareness, a pre-requisite for emotional intelligence, encompasses being in contact with, as well as effectively expressing and owning one s emotions, and is critical to the holistic functioning of children. Children in the middle childhood years are primed for learning as they have entered their formal schooling years, thereby not only needing to learn to read and write but to interact with peers and adults in a socially acceptable manner.

<p>Despite remarkable strides being made in legislation in South Africa, the country still faces immense challenges which directly impact on the care and protection of its children.

However, because of the socioeconomic<br /> situations of families, many of these children will not be able to return to their family.

Abstract:

In working with children in South African Child and Youth Care Centres (CYCCs) it is apparent that there is a strong reliance on caregivers to promote not only the daily needs of these children, but also their psychosocial and developmental needs (Greyvenstein, 2010). Cluver, Operario & Gardener (2009) note that this role is often complicated due to trauma experienced by children prior to being placed in a CYCC. Literature further suggests that events that have occurred over the past 21 years have impacted the experiences of caregivers. Meintjes, Moses, Berry and Mampane (2007) look to the HIV

Abstract:

The topic of the research is derived from the researcher‟s own interest as a social worker and observations of reality within youth-headed families. Over the past few years the number of published studies on child and youth-headed households has grown out of the realisation that this multi-faceted phenomenon is growing in numbers and complexity. Most of these studies and reports concentrate on the issue of scale and the severity of the crisis of child and youth-headed households (UNICEF, 2002; Maqoko & Dryer, 2007 & Kuhanen, Shemeikka, Notkola & Nghixulifwa, 2008). These studies reveal the com

Abstract:

Det har talats en hel del i media om fritidspedagogers rätt till legitimation samt om fritidspedagogernas yrkesroller. Denna studies syfte är att undersöka hur fritidspedagoger ser på sin egen professionalitet. Fokus riktas på fritidspedagogernas egen syn på deras centrala färdigheter och kunskaper, hur de tror att lärarnas och föräldrarnas syn är på dem, hur fritidspedagogerna själva kan planera och genomföra sin verksamhet och hur avsaknaden av legitimation påverkar deras yrkesroll. Studien har använt sig av en kvalitativ metod med semistrukturerade intervjuer. Fritidspedagogernasintervjuer

Abstract:

Contemporary policy critics note that the concept of 'youth' is of limited use and is 'disappearing as a meaningful social category' (Jeffs and Smith 1999: 46). This thesis argues that although the concept of 'youth' is flawed, without 'youth' young people may be infantilised in policy formulation through being represented and managed as children. In order to argue that the concept of 'youth' is both meaningful and useful recent policy formulation on 'child prostitution' will be analysed. Throughout the 1990s Barnardo's, the Children's Society and radical feminists campaigned to redefine acts

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Ruth G. McRoy<br>Thesis advisor: Thomas M. Crea<br>Youth involved with both the child welfare and juvenile justice systems are referred to as dually involved youth. Children involved in the child welfare system are highly vulnerable for maladaptive outcomes, and in particular, engagement in delinquent behaviors. Those youth who criminally offend are likely to shift back and forth between the two systems, potentially increasing their vulnerability for poor outcomes. The theoretical bases for this study are derived from ecological systems and attachment theories, specifically the
