To Tell or not to Tell? An Examination of Stepparents' Communication Privacy Management

Hsu, Tsai-chen 08 1900 (has links)
This study examined stepparents' privacy boundary management when engaging in communicative interactions with stepchildren. I utilized Petronio's communication privacy management theory to investigate stepparents' motivations of disclosing or concealing from stepchildren as well as how stepparents' gender influences such motivations. Moreover, present research also explored types of privacy dilemma within stepfamily households from stepparent perspectives. Fifteen stepfathers and 15 stepmothers received in-depth interviews about their self-disclosing and concealment experiences with stepchildren. I identified confidant dilemma and accidental dilemma in stepfamily households from stepparents' perspectives, as well as stepparents' gender differences in self-disclosing and concealing motivations. Findings also suggest that stepparents reveal and conceal from stepchildren out of same motivations: establishing good relationships, viewing stepchildren as own children, helping stepchildren with problems resulting from the divorce and viewing stepchildren as "others." The result also indicates that stepparents experienced dialectical tensions between closedness and openness during the decision of revealing or concealing from stepchildren.

Le tiers en famille : du parent social au beau-parent statutaire / The notion of third party within a family : from the social parent to a statutory stepparent

Tacite, Barbara 18 March 2019 (has links)
Parmi les tiers qui gravitent autour d’un enfant, il en est un que le droit français de la famille peine à reconnaître la singularité : l’homme ou la femme qui est en couple avec le parent d’un enfant et qui, à l’égard de ce mineur, assure une prise en charge plus ou moins factuelle.Qu’il se greffe sur une famille ou qu’il la compose, ce tiers communément dénommé « beau-parent » semble désormais connu, par une partie du droit positif (jurisprudence et doctrine), sous le vocable de parent social.Il est à reprocher au droit actuel de ne pas parvenir à appréhender, par des règles autonomes, les relations personnelles unissant ce tiers à l’enfant du parent dont il est le concubin, partenaire pacsé ou conjoint, de sexe différent ou de même sexe. Certes, l’incursion de ce tiers dans le mécanisme de l’autorité parentale ne saurait s’affranchir des principes directeurs du droit la famille : la coparentalité, l’indisponibilité de ladite autorité et l’impérieux respect de l’intérêt supérieur de l’enfant. Par la présente étude, il s’agit de mettre en exergue l’inopportunité, de lege lata, de l’identification du parent social par assimilation juridique et de l’en extirper en concevant un statut sui generis . Surgirait, de lege ferenda, le beau-parent statutaire. / Among third parties gravitating around a child, French Family Law has difficulty recognizing the singularity of one of them: the one (he or she) who, being in relationship with a child’s parent, provides care for the latter to a certain extent.Whether he or she is bound to a family, or is part of it, this third party commonly named “stepparent” now seems to be known by some part of the positive Law (jurisprudence and doctrine) referred to as “social parent”.One can blame French Law for not succeeding in apprehending, with autonomous rules, these relationships between the third party and the child whose parent is his concubine, having registered a civil union or spouse as a same-sex couple or opposite sex. Indeed the incursion of this third party into the mechanism of parental authority should in no way free itself from the guiding principles of Family Law: joint parenthood /co-parenting; the unavailability of the so-called authority and the upmost respect of the best interest of the child. This study is aimed at highlighting the impropriety, of lege lata, of the identification of the social parent by legal assimilation removing it, thus conceiving a sui generis status. Therefore it might occur from lege ferenda, the statutory stepparent.

Faktorer som påverkar relationerna i styvfamiljen / Factors that affect the relations in the stepfamily

Green, Wiveca January 2015 (has links)
Studien undersöker styvföräldrars upplevelse av vilka faktorer som påverkar relationerna och samspelet i styvfamiljen. Frågeställningen är: Vilka faktorer upplever styvföräldrar påverkar relationerna i styvfamiljen? Undersökningen är en kvalitativ studie med fem intervjuer av styvföräldrar. Intervjuerna har analyserats med hjälp av en tematisk analys. Resultat: I studien framkommer tre teman; relationsbyggande, konflikter och skuldkänslor.Studien visade att om det finns en stabil grund där tid har lagts ner på att bygga upp relationerna i styvfamiljen påverkar det relationerna positivt. Styvföräldrarollen behöver klargöras speciellt när det gäller förväntningar på rollen, ansvar och vilka befogenheter styvförälderns ska ha. Vid konflikter i styvfamiljen och inom familjesystemet kan styvföräldern inta en roll som neutral medlare vilket upplevs som positivt. Då konflikt finns mellan de biologiska föräldrarna kan barnen bli budbärare mellan system vilket har en negativ påverkan på styvfamiljen. En biologisk förälders brist på engagemang kan skapa skuldkänslor hos den andre föräldern. Då en förälder är långvarigt sjuk kan barnet ta ansvar för denna förälder vilket kan påverka så att barnet får en minskad eller obefintlig kontakt med den andre föräldern. / An investigation of stepparents experiences of what factors influence the stepfamily and the relationships in stepfamilies.Research question: Which are the factors that stepparents experience influence the relationships in the stepfamily?This study uses a qualitative methodology. Five stepparents have been interviewed and the interviews have been analyzed using thematic analysis.Results: Three themes appeared from the analysis; building relationships, conflicts and feelings of quilt. If the relationships in the stepfamily have been developed and been build up it influence the stepfamily in a positive way. The stepparent role needs to be clarified, especially when it comes to responsibility and powers of the stepparent. When conflicts occur in the stepfamily the stepparent can take the role of being a mediator that could be a positive factor. When there is a conflict between the biological parents the children could take different roles that influence the family in a negative way. If the biological parent is’t engaged in the children, feelings of guilt could be developed among the other parent. If a biological parent is long term sick the child can take responsibility for this parent and it can affect so that the child have less or no contact with the other parent.

Die kind se psigologiese belewenis van die ouer se nuwe lewensmaat na `n egskeiding.

Kotzé, Chané 31 December 2008 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / Approximately 50 percent of all marriages end up in divorce according to estimates. Thirty percent of divorcees enter into wedlock again within one year from being divorced, thereby creating a reconstructed family. The child in the late middle childhood years experiences some unique challenges during the reconstruction of the family due to influences such as the parent-child relationship, parenting styles and the start of puberty. The purpose of this qualitative study is to determine the child's psychological experience within the reconstructed family and to provide guidelines to parents (and co-therapists) on how to deal with children during the reconstruction process. The qualitative method of research was applied as it is a more informal research procedure and the boundaries of the study subject are reasonably wide and undefined. The method provides an adaptable strategy regarding problem formulation and data collection, which allow semi-structured interviews, observations and field notes, and enable the researcher to obtain first hand knowledge and understanding of the problem. / Social Work / M.

Reconstructing rainbows in a remarried family : narratives of a diverse group of female adolescents 'doing family' after divorce

Botha, Carolina Stephanusina 30 November 2003 (has links)
This research journey investigated the ways in which (1) the lives of adolescents have been influenced by parental divorce and subsequent remarriage, (2) exploring the relationships participants have with biological, nonresidential fathers and (3) to collaboratively present ways of doing family in alternative. Four adolescent girls took part in group conversations where they could were empowered to have their voices heard in a society where they are usually marginalized and silenced. As a result of these conversations a family game, FunFam, was developed that aimed to assist families in expanding communication within the family. Normalizing prescriptive discourses about divorce and remarriage were deconstructed to offer participants the opportunity to re-author their stories about their families. The second part of the research journey explored the problem-saturated stories that these four participants had with their biological, nonresidential fathers. They deconstructed the discourses that influenced this relationship and redefined the relationship to suit their expectations and wishes. / Practical Theology / M.Th.
