Parents' process of coping with the child's mental disabilities |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
This diploma thesis tries to present parents’ process of coping with the child’s mental disabilities. Within theoretical part, I try to define mental disabilities. I present families with a mentally disabled child through the description of contemporary family, parenting and society's expectations regarding family life. Furthermore, I describe the process of coping and support needed. The empirical part presents the results of qualitative analysis, in which I conducted interviews with two couples. Interviews have been divided into four areas, which I analyzed later on: the presentation of a child, the process of coping, family dynamics, social position and support systems. Results of the analysis showed that parents’ process of coping depended primarily on their individual characteristics and their experience of the support needed. Parents showed high level of acceptance of the child and the family situation regardless of the individual’s coping process. Despite the initial differences between partners, parents expressed the interconnectedness of family members. The survey results point to parents’ greater need for information concerning the child’s disability and their support options. Results showed the great importance that experience with professionals have for parents. Also, results showed their need for a reasonable approach and appropriate way of working referring to experts that provide assistance. |

Diplomska naloga skuša predstaviti proces soočanja staršev z otrokovo motnjo v duševnem razvoju. V teoretičnem delu opredelim motnje v duševnem razvoju. Preko opisa sodobne družine, starševstva in pričakovanj družbe glede družinskega življenja, predstavljam družine z otrokom, ki ima motnjo v duševnem razvoju. V nadaljevanju se posvečam opisu procesa soočanja in podpore, ki je ob tem pomembna. Empirični del podaja rezultate kvalitativne analize, v katerem sem izvedla pogovore dveh parov. Pogovori so bili razdeljeni na štiri področja, ki sem jih kasneje analizirala: predstavitev otroka, proces soočanja, družinska dinamika, družbena umeščenost in sistemi pomoči. Rezultati analize opravljenih intervjujev so pokazali, da je bil proces soočanja staršev z otrokovo motnjo v duševnem razvoju odvisen predvsem od njihovih individualnih značilnosti ter njihovega doživljanja potrebne podpore. Starši so pokazali visoko stopnjo sprejemanja otroka in celotne družinske situacije ne glede na individualen potek procesa soočanja. Kljub začetnim razhajanjem med partnerjema, so starši izrazili medsebojno povezanost družinskih članov. Rezultati raziskave kažejo na večjo potrebo staršev po informacijah v zvezi otrokovo motnjo ter možnosti podpore za njih. Pokazal se je zelo velik pomen, ki ga imajo izkušnje s strokovnjaki za starše in s tem potreba staršev po primernemu pristopu in načinu dela posameznih strokovnjakov, ki nudijo pomoč. |
