我们对人口普查数据的重新分析表明,95%的亲属关系安排是“非正式的”,即在正式的儿童福利制度之外进行的。对80名接受非正式亲属照料的8至18岁儿童及其照顾者的采访显示,大多数儿童与亲属照顾者关系良好,但三分之一的儿童因没有与父母住在一起而受到嘲弄或欺凌。许多儿童受到严格控制,他们知道这一潜在的污名化信息。大多数孩子在他们的社交网络中都有大量的成年人和儿童,五分之三的人认为他们的父母仍然是他们生活中的关键人物。那些认为少数人对他们非常重要的孩子更多地与年长的亲属照顾者生活在一起(其中许多人健康状况不佳),更经常感到焦虑和抑郁,并且不与他人谈论自己的生活状况。相当多的儿童担心他们的照顾者健康状况不佳,如果他们死了,也担心自己的未来。讨论了这些调查结果对法定和志愿服务的意义。
Our re-analysis of census data shows that 95% of kinship arrangements are ‘informal’, i.e. made outside the formal child welfare system. Interviews with 80 children aged 8–18 years in informal kinship care and their carers showed that most children were well attached to their kin carers, but one-third had been taunted or bullied because they did not live with their parents. Many children tightly controlled who knew about this potentially stigmatizing information. Most children had good numbers of adults and children in their social networks, and for three-fifths, their parents were still key figures in their lives. The children who regarded few people as very important to them significantly more often lived with older kin carers (many of whom were in poor health), were more often anxious and depressed, and did not talk about their living situation to others. A considerable number of children worried about their carers’ poor health and about their own future if they died. The significance of these findings for statutory and voluntary services is discussed.
