Psychological consequences of (Euro)orphanhood: family life style, diagnosis and support
Abstract
Economic migration, especially to Western Europe, is increasingly the reaction of Poles to the
presently occurring political, economic, and social changes. The mass exodus and the resulting
family separation are becoming a serious social problem, especially in relation to the issues of
the development and education of children and youth left behind commonly known as Euroorphans.
Psychological consequences of Euromigration are experienced by all family members
i.e. parents-spouses, children, grandparents, as well as the immediate surrounding friends,
neighbours, school, and local community. The balance of positive and negative effects of decisions
made by the family in the period of political transformation also those concerning the
place of living and employment either together or separately depends, to a great extent, on the
mode of reaching the decisions and implementing them by the whole family. We pay particular
attention to the degree of involvement of all family members in the decision making process
concerning migration and to the necessity of preparing the family in advance to make conscious
and responsible choices. Family counsellors play an essential role in this field.
