The bachelor thesis deals with the hospitalization of a child and all the factors that affect other family members in connection with the child's admission to a medical facility. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the child, the perception of illness, the impact of hospitalization on the child, as well as on the family, siblings and cooperation with medical staff. The empirical part is based on a quantitative research investigation and analysis of the data collected. The aim of the empirical part was to find out whether the child's hospitalization affects the family, family life and siblings. A quantitative research method was used using a non-standardized questionnaire of own design, which was intended for parents of children hospitalized in pre- selected wards of Motol University Hospital. 123 completed questionnaires were included in the actual survey.

Building Legal Awareness Among Children Living in Children's Homes With the Support of a Social Worker
PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Natálie
The bachelor thesis deals with building legal awareness among children living in children's homes with the support of a social worker. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to determine the situation of legal awareness among children living in children's homes and to find out what role the social worker plays in building legal awareness among children in a selected children's home. The practical part is based on a combined type of research, the interviewing technique. First, legal awareness among children living in orphanages was investigated using prof. Gary Melton's international questionnaire. The method used was the guided interview, which was conducted individually with each child. The data collected was analyzed using the statistical program SPSS. The second research tool was a semi-structured interview which was conducted with social workers in children's homes. Coding in the subtext of the interview conducted was chosen to evaluate the data. The evaluation of the collected data was done by pencil-paper method and subsequent clustering. The research population consisted of a total of 63 people. From the research investigation, it was found that age does not affect children's attitudes towards granting rights in model situations. In terms of gender, only one situation showed that girls were more inclined to grant rights than boys. In the case of social workers and legal awareness building among children from children's homes, it was found that children's rights are primarily the concern of educators, but social workers also contribute to legal awareness building, especially before the child leaves the home. The findings of this bachelor thesis can serve all those who encounter children living in children's homes in their practice and the public who are interested in this topic.

Legal awareness of children visiting low-threshold facilities for children and youth
BEDNÁŘOVÁ, Anna
This bachelor thesis focuses on the legal awareness of children attending low-threshold facilities for children and youth. The theoretical part deals with the history of the child's position in society, the Convention on the Rights of the Child and other key documents related to the rights of the child, and also focuses on techniques and methods of social work in low threshold facilities for children and youth. The thesis also deals with the work of social workers in these facilities and their implementation of children's rights. The aim of the research was to find out the legal awareness of children attending low- threshold facilities for children and youth and what role the social worker has in building it. The method used was a combined type of research. The quantitative part of the research involved 94 respondents who answered questions in a questionnaire developed by prof. Gary Melton using a guided interview. The qualitative part involved 5 workers who, through a semi-structured interview, provided a deeper understanding of how social workers contribute to building legal awareness. The research found that age does not have as significant an impact on children's attitudes to the granting of rights as might be expected. There was a difference in the attribution of rights between girls and boys in certain situations. Social workers build legal awareness through direct work with clients. The results of this work can provide important information for further development and effective work in the protection and fulfilment of children's rights.

The rights of a child and duties of a parent
Carbolová, Zuzana ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
Resumé This thesis, dealing with rights of a child and duties of a parent, is based on the fact that it is primarily the parents who have to fulfill their duties towards children while a child has primarily the right that a parent fulfills duties towards him. This condition is justified by the fact that children are in relation to adults, in this thesis towards parents, traditionally considered as a weaker "element". Because of that, the attention is firstly paid to the rights of a child in a wider context. In the very beginning we take into consideration a historical context of the child's rights development that shows the contrast between a premodern period when a child was considered as almost powerless and without rights and a "progressive " 20th century when a lot of international documents concentrate solely on rights of a child. As a follow-up to the child's rights development, the attention is aimed on explanation of the terms "best interests of the child" and "child's welfare". The thesis also deals with participatory rights in relation to the law court and in relation towards parents. Because the role of a family is very important in a development and education of a child, the thesis also focuses on juridical protection of the family and explains the term "family" in the European system of the...
