Maltreated and abused children
HOUFOVÁ, Jana
According to the statistics there are forty thousand of battered and abused children in the Czech Republic. Maltreatment and abuse are not revealed in most cases and thus they accompany the children during their whole childhood. The reason is that children cannot defend themselves. The maltreatment or the abuse of a child is revealed only if somebody from the child?s neighbourhood observes anything suspicious and decides to report it, which is both a moral and a legal obligation. A person, who breaks this obligation to disclose such an offence, might be even awarded a criminal penalty. The objective of this paper is to survey the social environment of children in South Bohemia, where the abuse and maltreatment happen, to find out whether the objects of maltreatment and abuse are more often boys or girls, and also to find out, who is most often the oppressor or an offender. A partial objective of this paper is to explain basic terms of this issue. Recognition of CAN syndrome, surveying the regions with the highest rate of criminal offences committed against children, consequences and harmful effects of maltreatment and abuse and chances of a maltreated or an abused child to lead a full-valued life. The results of my work might help to social workers from the Social and Legal Children Protection Department in South Bohemia to reveal the criminal offences of child abuse. Social workers might focus more on the social environment of the abused children and at the same time on the offenders. This would increase the protection and professional help to the victims of these offences.

Public attitude to abused women as victims of home violence in the South Bohemian Region
BEDLÁNOVÁ, Marta
A goal of the research part of my bachelor thesis was to find out what is an awareness of lay and professional public of women as victims of the domestic violence in the South Bohemian Region. Because I live in the South Bohemian Region, I focused the research just on this locality. I was especially interested in the fact, if people living in the South Bohemian Region are influenced by certain prejudices and stereotypes and whether they are sufficiently informed about the problem of the domestic violence. For the reason of a big number of respondents I chose an empirical method of the investigation {--} a quantitative research. To get necessary data I used a questionnaire method or the standardized set of question with an anonymous course. From summarized results of the research I concluded, that neither lay public nor professional public living in the South Bohemian Region, do not think of abused women as victims of the domestic violence with prejudices and stereotypes. However, the fact that people living in the South Bohemian Region do not think of abused women as the victims of the domestic violence with prejudices and stereotypes, does not mean that there are no myths, prejudices and stereotypes at the South Bohemian lay as well as professional public. For example I have registered a still prevalent myth at the lay public: ``women provoke men to use the violence{\crq}q. I noted an existence of the prejudice at the professional public: {\clq}qattractive and self-confident women do not become victims of the domestic violence{\crq}q. The other result of my bachelor thesis was to ascertain that, in contrast to sufficient information at the professional public, the lay public have not still enough information about the problem of the domestic violence. Currently I can see the lack of information mainly on the phenomenon at the lay public as the fundamental problem of the domestic violence. I think that it would be very useful, efficient, but also interesting to focus an attention on the way how to achieve to greatest possible awareness of the Czech public.

Child as a victim of domestic violence
JANŮ, Alena
Domestic violence is currently seen as a significant social problem; it is a form of violence that is widespread throughout the world, in all cultures and all social strata. Domestic violence is usually directed against women, to a lesser extent also against men or senior citizens. Children living in families at risk of domestic violence should be seen as indirect victims of domestic violence too. Domestic violence does not threaten the victims only, but also children who are present in violent incidents between the parents. This thesis, which is focused on children as victims of domestic violence, is divided into a theoretical part and a practical part. The theoretical part explained the basic concepts in this field. In the beginning, it was important to highlight the importance of family, its essential functions and vital role in meeting the needs of all its members. Another section explains the definitions of domestic violence, the key features of family violence, its types and forms, as well as victims of domestic violence are dealt with. In connection with the focus on the child as a victim of domestic violence, the CAN syndrome is explained as an issue of maltreated, neglected and abused children. Finally, is described the possible impact of the presence of domestic violence in the family on the development and psychology of the child. The thesis also summarizes the possibility of legal protection for persons at risk of domestic violence, including interventions and assistance to victims. The practical part of the thesis processes the results obtained by quantitative research, both from the statistics of the Intervention Centre for Help to the Victims of Domestic Violence at the Diocesan Charity in České Budějovice and the data obtained from a questionnaire sent to institutions, at municipal authorities of municipalities with extended powers, for the social and legal protection of children. The objective was to find out whether domestic violence occurs mainly in families with children and what the effect of domestic violence in the family is on the child?s mental development. The region concerned was South Bohemia. Based on the data obtained, the following information was found: the total number of households with domestic violence in which minors were present, the total number of threatened children, and the impact of violence among adult household members present on the psyche of children.

General Awareness of Stalking at the Faculty of Health and Social Care, University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice
VONDRŮ, Mirka
Stalking or a dangerous pursuit is considered to be a specific form of violence. Its main feature is that an offender clamps to a known or unknown person who he persecutes by an unsolicited and unwanted attention. Currently, stalking is a current issue of policy and legislation. The bachelor thesis deals with problems of stalking and domestic violence. Key findings and current information on stalking and domestic violence are summarized in the theoretical part. In the practical part there is presented an awareness of these issues, which students from Faculty of Health and Social Studies of South Bohemian University have. An aim of the bachelor thesis is to find out the awareness of students from Faculty of Health and Social Studies of South Bohemian University on stalking and domestic violence. This hypothesis was determined in accordance with the goal: ?Students of higher grades will be better informed on stalking than students of lower grades.? This hypothesis was disproved. The research was carried out quantitatively, a method of interviewing was used, a technique of a survey. The research sample consisted of students from Faculty of Health and Social Studies of South Bohemian University in České Budějovice. The research showed that students from Faculty of Health and Social Studies of South Bohemian University were informed on stalking and domestic violence. Despite this predication, however, I believe, that the general public is not sufficiently informed on these issues. It is possible to increase the public awareness by an enlightenment, which should be oriented above all to pupils of elementary and secondary schools. A benefit of this thesis I see especially in a better awareness of students on these current topics. Furthermore, even in a possibility of using the obtained data of the research part and also in gaining a greater insight into stalking and domestic violence issues among the general public and people interested in the given issue.

The senior as a perpetrator for home violence
SMETANA, Marek
Home violence problem has been solved more intensively in the Czech Republic since 2000. Perpetrators for home violence are usually men as partners in life and they are very sporadically at senior age. From the sociological point of view seniors embody a kind of specificity; therefore, it sounds interesting to focus, within the thesis, on home violence perpetrated by seniors. The introduction of the bachelor thesis goes into explaining some basic concepts, reasons, kinds and forms of home violence. Besides, it is focused on seniors as a specific sociological group. In the main body of the thesis there are case studies of home violence files, which are at Písek Regional Department of the Police of the Czech Republic, of perpetrators above the age of 65 and the investigations of home violence specifics of the age category are documented there. The thesis target was to focus on specifications of the senior as a perpetrator for home violence and to describe reasons leading to home violence in their world. Findings can be used for the shaping of preventative measures to minimize home violence perpetrated by seniors. Six home violence case reports were studied at Písek Regional Department of the Police of the Czech Republic via the qualitative research technique. Seniors were perpetrators of those cases. Specifics of the mentioned age category of home violence perpetrators were disclosed by interviewing investigators of the cases via the no-standardised form of interview. Research results of the studied cases confirm the fact that perpetrators{\crq} partners tend to excuse perpetrators{\crq} violence. Periods of violence, tranquility and forgiveness usually take turns in the cohabitation of partners. Police investigators should improve their own skills in the field of appropriate communication with both the aggressive and violent perpetrator and the victim of the home violence. Police investigators should also deepen their coordination with organisations which help victims of home violence. Police training centres should hone investigators{\crq} skills in the field of assertive techniques, which are focused on appropriate communication with seniors and with other specific groups.
