Abstract:
A survey was conducted to determine the types of problems directors of child care services experience in excluding sick children from their service. A questionnaire was sent to directors of all child care services in the Eastern Sydney Area. The major problems reported by directors were diagnosing the likely cause of illness; knowing whether the symptoms warrant exclusion; and convincing parents to keep their sick child at home. Most directors felt that parents, relatives or friends should take care of sick children. Directors also suggested that awards allowing for family leave to care for sick children, the provision of a room for sick children in the child care service, and special centres for sick children may benefit working parents with sick children. Problems associated with the exclusion of sick children would be ameliorated by the provision of more information as well as a range of alternative care arrangements for working parents with sick children.

Abstract:
This article describes a study carried out among 14-18-year-old nursing students in Hungary. The students were asked to consider an ethical problem. The parents of a sick child ask that she should not be told of a forthcoming operation. Are the nurses to agree to this demand or not? The author concluded from this study that nurses need more training in ethical decision-making, that they need to know about the rights of children in hospital, and that nursing training should start when students are older.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a brief, office-based educational intervention to increase parent or patient recognition of the early warning signs and symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Forty-two patients aged > 13 years and 34 parents of children aged ≤ 13 years were given a pretest questionnaire about their knowledge of signs and symptoms of DKA and sick day management practices. They received a brief refresher course on sick day management specific to their treatment modality (pump vs. injection) and were given a take-home flow sheet of guidelines for diabetes sick day management. Subjects were retested with the same knowledge questionnaire after 6 to 12 months. Patients or parents scored higher on the posttest than the pretest and called the emergency line for assistance more frequently ( p = .032) following the intervention. Emergency department visits were significantly reduced in adolescents ( p = .024). A short educational intervention and printed management tool is effective in improving sick day and DKA knowledge and appears to be effective in reducing emergency department visits by increasing utilization of a diabetes emergency line for early outpatient intervention.

Abstract:
The approach to the healing process of idiopathic scoliosis in terms of the biopsychosocial model of disease, which involves consideration of factors of biological, social, psychological nature, is reviewed. Factors of a psychological nature provide adaptive behavior of the patient in the hospital, and coordinated participation of various specialists in the treatment and rehabilitation of the patient in a situation of complicated treatment. Idiopathic scoliosis is a disease that is accompanied with physical and moral suffering and defines the conditions of mental development and functioning of sick children and their parents in a situation of progressive disease. Under these conditions, an important factor in coping with the situation of the disease and the successful rehabilitation treatment is harmonious attitude of the sick child to the disease. Personal problems of parents of sick children, manifested in their disharmonious attitude to the disease, reduce the adaptive capacity of children in hospital. In this connection, it is necessary to perform participation of clinical psychologists who provide the necessary information concerning the interactions of medical staff with patients and their parents on the stages of orthopedic treatment by doctors and other staff, as well as to provide the necessary psychological support for sick children and their parents.

Abstract:
Epilepsy is a many-sided disease that manifests itself as seizures of various kinds and origin, which can start at any age, often in childhood. The nursing, training and treatment of a sick child have serious implications for the whole family. The most significant factor becomes the ability of a nurse to impart existing professional knowledge to a patient and his or her family and to teach about disease control measures. More informed patients and their families feel more in control of their illness than less informed patients and their relatives. People with epilepsy and the general public lack general information about the condition, knowledge about care and how to deliver it, and access to services. Educating loved ones is a key tool in disease control and prevention.The research was conducted in October and November of 2019 in one of the city hospitals in Vilnius. The analysis of questionnaire data before the training revealed that parents whose children suffer from epilepsy have lack of information about the disease. The questionnaire data after the training showed that parents acquired more knowledge and the results improved. The majority of parents whose children suffer from epilepsy is well informed about the disease. However, they have a lack of knowledge in relation to the factors provoking epileptic seizures. Besides, they are not aware when it is necessary to call the ambulance and when to use first aid medicines. The parents are interested in innovations related to epilepsy, treatment and care of a sick child. All the parents have a need to gain knowledge about the disease. The comparison of parents’ awareness of the disease before and after the training showed that parents had learnt to provide aid correctly during seizures. The training was effective.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to create an understanding of the negotiation process behind the decision of who will stay at home with a sick child and to develop the knowledge of the mechanisms considered to affect the negotiation process, in particular, the mechanisms likely to contribute to an uneven use of care leave. In the study six interviews were conducted with three sets of parents. These interviews were then analysed with Janet Finch’s (1989) definition of negotiation of family responsibilities. The study finds that the negotiation on care leave is a result of the negotiation of the shared view of reality. This image is in turn influenced by a number of institutional aspects such as job design, relative resources, and the couple's ideological points. Previous studies that found that relative resources, converted to salary, affects the distribution greatest. Instead the results of this study points out that the nature of work is most important for how parents divide their care leave. If one parent have work that easier can be pushed forward or to be away from, the latter tend to be the one who stays at home. This arrangement, however, is affected by a number of other factors. For example, the ideas of a fair distribution of care leave counteract this tendency.

Abstract:
In this essay, Winnicott discusses the paradox that although hospital visiting by parents has been taken up and is an improvement in the issue of separation for children and their families, nevertheless Winnicott details how visiting children in hospital can also be disruptive to the serious job of the nursing care of some very sick children. He argues that in some instances it is better to let the children adjust to the hospital environment and be cared for there without the conflicts that regular parental visits can potentially engender.

Abstract:
This chapter covers the use of IPT for the treatment of depression in adolescents and children. Adaptations of IPT when used in treating depressed adolescents include flexibility, definitions of the sick role, the involvement of parents or guardians, the use of information from outside sources, and confidentiality. Obtaining information about the interpersonal context of depression and using the interpersonal inventory are similar in adolescents and adults. Depression prevention programs have been developed for teenagers. Depression is uncommon in preadolescents, but family-based IPT has promise as an efficacious intervention with readily measurable targets and mechanisms of action.

Abstract:
This chapter deals with the complexities of succession, specifically in the ways money is shared with other members of the family. Family members not only earn money from work; some family members also inherit money from dead relatives, or get gifts from living ones. Other members give money away, during their lifetimes, or after death. Parents obviously have to pay for everything their children need, and grown children sometimes support old, sick, and destitute parents. When a family member dies, typically they leave whatever money or assets remain to members of the family. And while books, law school curricula, and legal practice treat family law and the law of succession as entirely different subjects, this chapter deals away with those distinctions in order to reveal how these subjects impact family life and family law.

Abstract:
This chapter considers the impact of children's changing economic and sentimental value on turn-of-the-twentieth-century baby markets, including profound transformations in the sale and exchange value of “priceless” children in foster care and adoption. Why is it that today's infertile parents eagerly offer thousands of dollars to obtain a baby, but in the late nineteenth century unwanted babies found no buyers? The chapter traces the late-twentieth-century emergence of a controversial surrogacy market. It argues that the socially and morally problematic nature of the surrogacy baby market is not primarily that sacred items are “placed in a contract and sealed by money,” nor even that surrogacy is rigged against poor women. More significantly, surrogacy unequivocally reveals our discriminatory valuation of children. Babies are made on “special order” because children already available on the adoption market are not “good” enough—too old, too sick, or of the wrong skin color. In this respect, surrogacy is only a technical innovation. In fact, it is just the latest stage of a very special adoption market that began in the 1920s.

Abstract:
Understanding that children are not small adults, and that they come in different sizes and stages of development, is fundamental to paediatric surgery. Knowledge of a child’s weight is crucial when considering fluid and medication administration. Moreover, babies have immature physiology and less functional reserve compared to older children. Understanding basic embryology will unravel some of the mysteries of developmental pathology encoun­tered by the paediatric surgeon, such as oesophageal atresia, malrotation of the gut, annular pancreas, and maldescent of the testis. The paediatric surgeon deals with some of the same surgical condi­tions that affect adults, but even management of a common condition such as inguinal hernia, has different therapeutic implications in children and adults. Paediatric surgery demands gentle tissue handling and deli­cate technique. Good communication skills are a prerequisite for dealing with the distraught or ill child and anxious parents, and the surgeon often retains a clinical interest in his or her patient, well into young adulthood. This chapter will test your knowledge of principles of surgical manage­ment of sick children and your understanding of presentations of some of the more commonplace conditions encountered by surgeons in this demanding, yet rewarding, discipline.

Abstract:
In 1983 a television crew was making a documentary film about the health of the employees of a nuclear fuels reprocessing plant in England on the coast of the Irish Sea. This plant had previously been the site of a facility for the production of plutonium for nuclear weapons until it was converted to fuels processing after a fire in the reactor in 1957, during which there had been some release of radioactive material to the environment. The crew, filming in a town called Seascale 3 kilometers from the plant, where a number of the employees lived, was shocked to learn from the townspeople that there had been a surprising number of cases of leukemia among their children. Childhood leukemia is a rare disease, but in this small town there had been five cases in the preceding few years, ten times the number of cases that would have been expected from the average rate elsewhere in Great Britain. The focus of the film was changed from the health of the staff of the nuclear facility to the childhood leukemia in Seascale. Shown on television later that year, it aroused national attention and concern, making its points forcefully with shots of rapidly clicking Geiger counters in the neighborhood of the plant, claims that the coastline there is “the most radioactive environment on earth,” interviews with the anguished parents of sick or deceased children, reports of cows on neighboring farms born with malformations, and scenes of children playing on the beach with the smokestacks of the plant in the immediate background. It also reported that there had been some 300 other accidents at the plant in which radiation had been released, though the amounts were all of lesser magnitude than in the 1957 fire. The process for recovering plutonium from spent fuel from power plants does not recover all the plutonium, and some has to be disposed of as waste, along with other radioactive elements. Those responsible for the design of the plant had made the decision, based on both economic considerations and what was then known about the health hazards of radiation, to discharge much of this radioactive waste into the Irish Sea.

Abstract:
Taking the problem of filming children’s lives as a focus, this chapter explores how environments in cinema both condition and reflect the inner life of the film subject, citing films by Rossellini, De Sica, Ozu, Antonioni, and several documentary filmmakers. For the author, the experiences of filming children at a school and at a juvenile detention centre in India raised important questions about the relation of physical and social environments to an individual’s consciousness, and how this could be conveyed by cinematic means. One solution was to focus specifically on the concrete objects and surroundings that shaped the children’s perceptual world. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the difficulties of accurately portraying children’s lives in modern society, caused by parental fears and the increasing idealisation of childhood innocence. All these factors make accurately portraying children’s lives in documentary films more difficult, and may even increase the risks of doing so.

Abstract:
Treating sick children creates a range of ethical and legal considerations that are different from adult medicine. Paediatrics adapts as children develop cognitively, physically, and in autonomy. The introduction of new vaccines, therapies, and technology has improved the outcome for many conditions, including preterm birth, CHD, and oncology. At the same time as improvements in medicine and technology has come increased societal expectation, the impact of social media, and the rise of obesity in childhood. There are complex and blurred lines to be negotiated in parental, individual clinician, and institutional responsibility, especially when things go wrong. Paediatrics involves complex cases of neglect and abuse of children that have occurred in all societies and cultures. In this chapter, some of these aspects are discussed, including an outline of ethical principles that allow us to frame decision-making, how the law in the United Kingdom has evolved, and some of the principles of the Children Act 1989 and the Human rights Act 1998.

Abstract:
This chapter suggests that complex forms of discrimination are developing within and external to schools: within-school segregation is happening through the use of data to determine particular curriculum pathways and ability grouping of children; between-schools segregation through the use of data to determine high-status academic schools in comparison with ‘sink’ schools; and beyond schools, where children are separating themselves from school through absence and parents are making proactive decisions to home school. The chapter examines the construction of this fragmented and chaotic ‘system’ by considering the possibilities for reconciliation through examining Hannah Arendt's work on forgiving. The deployment of the Education Policy Knowledgeable Polity to the reforms to public services commons education puts the focus on a form of depoliticisation by privatism where the opportunity and capacity for forgiveness is in peril.

Abstract:
Chronic diseases affect the quality of life of families of sick people on the level of their physical, economic, mental, and subjective well-being. The aim of the paper is two-folded: a) to determine the economic and social consequences of the child's illness for families and b) to identify the factors that may influence the origin and development of asthma in the child population. The data come from a survey we carried out on a sample of parents with children who are treated in the Children's Speleotherapy Sanatorium in Ostrov near Macocha (a total sample of 201 respondents). We checked for any association by use of correlation analysis, Kruskal-⁠Wallis and Chi-square test. More than half of the families reported that the child's illness negatively influences the involvement in the labour market, families show an increase in financial costs associated with rehab and a financial loss during the care of a sick child. One third of the children’s patients has problems with missing classes at school, the average absence is 8 weeks in the school year, and every tenth child has difficulty in establishing social contacts. Analyses of external factors in relation to asthma show the effect of education on smoking in the family, but did not confirm the effect of age and mother's education on the birth weight of the child or the type of birth. From the results, it is clear that asthma adversely affects the quality of life of the asthmatic child and his family. The disease is thus associated with social and psychological consequences, which limits the performance at school for children and work activities for parents and other activities. All in one, it has not only health, but also socio-economic consequences.
