Although nowadays much attention is devoted to direct victims of a crime, children are still often ignored. A majority of society has a false presumption that the children are not affected by adult problems because they are not aware of them or they are too young to understand the situation.

This thesis, based on extensive foreign research, describes a spectrum of social, psychological and health consequences caused by the aforementioned trauma which can sooner or later affect a young person.
