Situation of children in the Charlotta Masaryk children´s home and their departure into foster family care
JALOVCOVÁ, Klára
The substitute educational care embraces all kinds of a substitute family for children without own functioning family background. There are two forms - the institutional and the family one. In my bachelor thesis I focused on issues relating to children from the Charlotta Masaryk´s Children Care Home and their departure to substitute family care. This medical facility has a relatively small capacity and is intended for children from one to three years of age. In accordance with the set goals, I divided the practical part into two sections. The first goal was to ascertain social, health and legal situation of children with ordered institutional upbringing, who were placed in the Charlotta Masaryk´s Children Care Home in the years of 2005 to 2008. The other goal was to map the situation of children with the ordered institutional upbringing, who departed from the Charlotta Masaryk´s Children Care Home to the substitute family care. Both goals were fulfilled. In order to fulfil the goals, a quantitative research method was used, i.e. the secondary data analysis technique. The following hypotheses were set: Hypothesis 1 - The most frequent reason for placing children in the children´s care home are social and health reasons Hypothesis 2 - the majority of children come to the children´s family home in a bad health condition. Hypothesis 3 - the majority of children from the children´s family home are in contact with their biological family Hypothesis 4 - Children placed in the substitute family care leave most frequently to the foster care. The hypothesis 2 was not confirmed, while the other hypotheses proved correct. It follows from the results of the hypothesis 1, that children come to the children care home most often out of social and health reasons, there are few purely health reasons. This is connected with the hypothesis 2, which was not confirmed. That is, the majority of children come to the children care home in a good health condition. The predominant majority of children come to the children care home from a family and stay in contact with them (hypothesis 3). Children most often return to their family; in the event that they leave to the substitute family care, then the foster care prevails over adoption (hypothesis 4). The results of work will be used for the purposes of Charlotta Masaryk´s Children Care Home and also for social workers, so that they can get an overview of the situation in the facility in question.

The Children´s Rights in Institutional Care.
KREJSOVÁ, Petra
The title of my diploma thesis is The Rights of Children in Institutional Care. It is composed of a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part deals with concepts such as the right, the child, a part deals with the characteristics of The Convention on the Rights of the Child or the Committee for the Rights of the Child. The research was carried out by means of the directed interview method (partly standardized method) applying a questionnaire created by professor Gary Melton and his team in Columbia, South Carolina. The questionnaire comprises identification questions (age, sex, class), four general questions dealing with conceptual understanding of law and twelve situations when the child adjudicates rights. The questionnaire was enhanced by 15 supplemental questions for children (created by prof. Dunovský and prof. Kovařík) delimiting the conceptual understanding of a ``good citizen{\crq}q. Further the questioning method was applied for the research by means of a questionnaire. The research file was made up by 80 children and 20 employees in total. Two goals were set in the paper. Goal 1: the paper aims at finding out whether children have their own rights. Goal 2: The paper checks whether rights of the child are respected in child care institutions. One hypothesis was set. H1: Legal awareness of children placed in children's homes is lower than legal awareness of children from a common primary school. I believe the goals have been fulfilled, however the hypothesis was not confirmed.

A preparedness of Wards of "Asylum for Children" for unsupported Life (an casuistic Study).
MYSLIVEČKOVÁ, Veronika
To find out how Children´s homes are able to prepare their children for their own future life was the aim of my work. If they manage to shape such situations in which they can be. I have understood after a dialogue with social worker that the children come back to their family no matter the family is. Only few of them want to cut loose. There were some dialogues with people who spent most part of their life in Children´s home. Which problem did they have. Who helped them. It has been found out that two from three respondents have had problem with money, they can´t plan it for a month. Another girl after leaving has had a problem to find a job.
