VOJTOVÁ, Lenka
My baccalaureate work ``The Causes of Taking Children out from their Families and Placing them in the Žíchovec Children´s Home in 2007{\crqq} is focused on the monitoring of circumstances related to the placement of children in the Žíchovec Children´s Home in 1997, on the identification and description of factors resulting in the placement of children in the said home. The analysis was based on the quantitative method, predominantly the collection of data acquired from the personal documentation of children enrolled in the course of 2007, 26 in total, their age ranging between 5 and 17. The other method consisted in several case studies illustrating the broad range of causes of the placement of children in this institution. Theoretical section: alternative educational care, institutional care and its functioning in different kinds of institutions like diagnostic institute, children´s home, children´s home with its own school, corrective institution for children, family and its role, the significance of social and legal protection of children. The presentation of the Žíchovec Children´s Home (history, organization, human resources, clients). Practical section: The determination of the causes of the placement of children in Žíchovec in 2007 using the quantitative method of data collection, the acquisition of personal documentation of children enrolled in the institution in the course of 2007 (totaling 26), their age ranging between 5 and 17 years. The practical section was supplemented with several case studies illustrating the broad range of causes of the placement of children in this institution. The most frequent cause of taking children out from their families and placing them in the Žíchovec Children´s Home in 2007 have been behavior problems of children originating predominantly from incomplete or newly supplemented families with low income standards. This baccalaureate work should provide a more detailed information on the causes of taking children out of their families in order to be placed in a children´s home for the purposes of the staff of such types of institutions as well as of all those who are interested in this issue.
