Abstract

ABSTRACT Hosting families host children, who are deprived of contact with their own families. They aim to create a positive family model and supportive relationships for these children. This qualitative study was based on in-depth semi-structured interviews with 20 couples in 20 hosting families (20 interviews, 40 interviewees). The present article describes and analyzes the dialectics in the families’ experience: on one pole is the moral obligation to accept the child with a life history and ongoing difficulties; on the other pole is the stress derived from the child’s emotional distress, risk behavior, and crisis situations. The hosting families experience distress and, sometimes, helplessness. At the same time, their commitment to the choice to become a hosting family is reinforced. The article emphasizes hosting families’ need for support and counseling to help strengthen their coping capacities.

寄宿儿童家庭

寄宿家庭寄宿儿童，他们被剥夺了与自己家庭的联系。他们的目标是为这些孩子创造一个积极的家庭模式和支持关系。这项定性研究基于对20个寄宿家庭的20对夫妇的深入半结构化访谈（20次访谈，40名受访者）。本文描述并分析了家庭经历中的辩证法：一方面是接受有生活史和持续困难的孩子的道德义务；另一方面是来自孩子情绪困扰、风险行为和危机情况的压力。寄宿家庭经历着痛苦，有时甚至是无助。与此同时，他们选择成为寄宿家庭的承诺得到了加强。文章强调寄宿家庭需要支持和咨询，以帮助加强他们的应对能力。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
