Item (Przed)wczesne macierzyństwo - perspektywa biograficzna. Diagnoza, pomoc i wsparcie(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2016) Skowrońska-Pućka, AgnieszkaThe Polish literature still doesn’t refer to the social problem of premature maternity, when a girl becomes pregnant or has a baby before she comes of age. This topic is discussed much more frequently among doctors and sociologists than teachers. Researchers concentrate more on the psychological and social consequences than on the pedagogical perspective of the subject. At the same time, there are children having children in our country every year. Experts on the problem say the statistics do not take the entire phenomenon into account; however, there is still reason to be concerned. The demographical yearbook of the Central Statistical Office of Poland indicates that 16,000 teenagers gave birth in 2011. The subject of my research was young girls’ experience of premature pregnancy and the responsibilities resulting from premature motherhood. I wanted to know what they feel, and to help and support them, which is why I tried to describe their situation and their prospects for the future. The research is focused on three main issues: the crisis of a complicated biographical situation: both being prematurely pregnant and put in an educational care facility; having a new role – performing the duties of a mother, being a mother and a student, as well as other social roles typical for an adolescent; the reactions of the closest group of people; assessment of the educational care facility’s role and other institutional and non-institutional forms of support for young mothers, along with the mothers’ demands and expectations of social support. I sought answers to my theses using qualitative research methods (biographical method). I chose this kind of empirical verification because it allows subjective phenomena to be shown and through meetings with the teenage mothers who are the subject of my research, it is possible to find out about their experiences and lifestyle.Item Sytuacje trudne w perspektywie jednostkowej i społecznej(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2016) Karaszewska, Hanna; Silecka-Marek, EwelinaThe publication provides the reader with a clear description of difficult situations experienced by different individuals at different stages of their lives and in different environments. A difficult situation, therefore, can be regarded as a continuum, because on the one hand we are dealing with a problematic situation, and on the other with a state of mental stress. An individual can seek a constructive solution to a difficult situation, and therefore treat it as a task or challenge. There is also a possibility that the situation will become a stressful one, which will disrupt human behavior. Undoubtedly, the struggle with a variety of difficult life situations is a challenge for every individual. The diverse nature of these texts testifies to the complexity and importance of the issues. We therefore hope that readers will find in this publication some answers to their issues, guidance, or that the publication will become a source of inspiration for further theoretical and practical actions.
