The purpose of this study was to examine social workers’ experiences of communication with silent children, what conservation methods, tools and aids may be used and how the child’s participation thereby can be stimulated. The study was based on two research questions which were following: What affects the child’s silence in conversation along with what conversation methods, aids and what tools can be used in order to engage and include the child? The following study consisted of a qualitative nature and five interviews were conducted with social workers working in different fields. In addition to the interviews, research was sought in order to receive insight into the research area. The search process was not limited to the nation's borders, but consisted of global research. As a result of this, a huge lack of useful research was discovered. The results showed that factors such as social workers’ personal qualities, the character of the methods used and communicative skills had a considerable effect on the child’s motivation and will to participate. Although silent children are common in the conversation room and exist in each area of the social work’s practice, there is no comprehensive research or direct guidelines to mastering such meetings.
