  This article aims to provide insight into how children experiencing divorce make sense of what happens in their lives. Divorce is explored as a way of living, embedded in the social and cultural conditions for upbringing and modern family life. To investigate the questions in accordance with our theoretical framework—cultural psychological understanding of development, meaning making and a variational mode of thinking—we conducted interviews with 13 children (6–12 years) inspired by a 'Life Mode Interview' approach. This interview takes a specific day as the point of departure, asking the child to give detailed descriptions of what has happened, both the ordinary and the exceptional, and to add reflections about what is told. In this way, we got contextualized descriptions of everyday life and changes in this everyday life, and thus empirical material about different aspects of the divorce. The presentation focuses on how the children received the news about the divorce and different ways of bringing the news forward to their schoolmates. Special attention is given to the importance of understanding the parents' divorce in a way that is communicable to others. Different meanings of ‘children's agency’ are discussed and made relevant for research on divorce and family life.

  Aim: Expert assessments in parental disputes are used to help the court make decisions “in the best interests of the child”. Our aim was to explore the understandings of parenthood, parental care, and child development embedded in such assessments. Methods: The article is based on a qualitative analysis of 20 expert assessments from the Oslo District Court. Analytical questions, such as how each parent’s contribution to parental care was described and evaluated, were posed to each assessment. The answers were then summarised across the cases. Results: Emotional aspects of the parent–child relationship, isolated episodes and statistical risk factors dominated the descriptions of parental care. The child’s everyday life and the parents’ care practices around the clock and over time received little attention. Moreover, the mothers seemed to be held to higher standards of parenting than were the fathers. This made it difficult to get a clear picture of the child’s life situation and made violence seem a less sign

  Når foreldre med barn under 16 år skal skilles, er det obligatorisk med mekling. Foreldrene får også invitasjon til at barna skal være med. Dette begrunnes med at barn har behov for å uttrykke seg om sin livssituasjon og har en lovfestet rett til å uttale seg i saker som angår dem. For å utforske hvordan tilbudet om barns deltakelse blir tatt i bruk, ble foreldre og barn i 15 familier med denne erfaringen intervjuet om hendelsen. Det viste seg at meklingstimen var lite preget av rettighetsargumentasjonen fra innkallingen, og at få av barna ble involvert i spørsmål rundt samvær og bosted. Både barn og foreldre ga imidlertid uttrykk for at de satte pris på tiltaket. Barna la vekt på at det var godt å snakke med mekleren, og foreldrene følte at det understreket barnas plass i skilsmisseprosessen, i tillegg til at det fungerte som en sjekk på at det gikk greit med barna. Sentralt i disse vurderingene var tilliten de hadde til mekleren som en vennlig ekspert på å snakke med barn og foreldre, noe som blir diskutert som et tegn på barnemeklingens dreining i en mer terapeutisk retning. Resultatene illustrerer spenningen mellom «barns deltakelse» som et høyt verdsatt politisk mål og en uavklart faglig forståelse av hva meklingsdeltakelsen skal brukes til og hva som skal komme ut av den. Nøkkelord: Samlivsbrudd, mekling, barns deltakelse, terapi, kultur

  Common factors, such as the working alliance, positive expectations, and psychoeducation have been robustly related to outcome in studies of psychotherapy. As a multicomponent treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD), Mentalization-based treatment (MBT) includes introductory group-based psychoeducation on core features of personality functioning, BPD, the treatment program and disorder-related personal management. Generally, few studies have investigated patients’ views on how psychoeducation works. This study aimed to explore their experience of the group-based psychoeducation. Twelve patients who had attended the introductory group-based psychoeducation in MBT participated. Qualitative interviews were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. MBT psychoeducation was found helpful in itself and in the further treatment process. Identified experiences related to the group (feeling less ashamed, learning from others, feeling different from others), acquisition of “tools” for better personal management (the psychoeducational content; putting new knowledge into practice), preparation for longer term therapy (therapy became more trustworthy, easier to understand, felt more effective), and demanding aspects (problems with attendance or concentration). This qualitative study is the first to present patients’ own experiences of psychoeducation as part of MBT and suggests that psychoeducation is a powerful and facilitating intervention. Careful patient selection may further optimize its potential. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)

  Without access to their own families, how do young, unaccompanied refugee minors re-establish their social lives in ways that facilitate a sense of togetherness in their everyday lives during resettlement? This question was approached by exploring the young persons’ creation of relational practices and the kinds of sociomaterial conditions that seemed to facilitate the evolvement of these practices, including the professional caregivers’ contributions. Interviews with 11 boys and 4 girls (aged 13–16) from Afghanistan, Somalia, Angola and Sri Lanka, as well as their professional caregivers in their country of residence, Norway, were analysed systematically by searching for, and categorizing, the variation of relational practices among the young persons. Three overarching practices are presented. First, the young persons worked to connect past, present and future contexts through collective meaning-making practices. Second, they regulated their peers’ emotions through emotional care practices. Third, they widened each other’s social networks through practices of social inclusion. Following the resettlement procedure the young persons moved from one kind of institution (care centre) to other parts of the country and to another kind of institution (group home) where the relational practices mentioned above appeared to be less prevalent. The article suggests that arranging everyday life as collective enterprises, as well as housing peers with similar cultural backgrounds, were central for the evolvement of the relational practices. As such, the article both elucidates a range of health-promoting relational practices that the young persons’ realised as a group as well as how these practices are embedded in sociomaterial conditions.

  Understanding the dynamics of custodial conflicts is important for reducing the level of such conflicts and improving the upbringing conditions for the children involved. The parents in these cases care for children living in two households, and our approach therefore draws on the knowledge of how ‘ordinary’ parents proceed in sharing care within and between locations. The paper is based on qualitative interviews with 15 Norwegian parents who were in contact with the child protection service during their custodial disagreements, indicating a high level of conflict and concerns about inadequate care. When describing and reflecting upon their practices of care, the parents speak from two main positions: as a concerned parent or an accused parent. These positions imply different approaches on how to share care, which offer insight into the mechanisms of getting stuck. Although the concerned parent worries about the child's well-being while staying with the other parent and thereby aims to take a continuous responsibility across households, the accused parent perceives the co-parent's involvement as undue and negotiates increased distance in parenting. Focusing on practices of care may contribute to turning the attention away from conflicts between former partners and towards the child's situation.

  Current cultural understandings of adolescence are often engraved with serious concerns, having to do with e.g. school dropout, drug abuse, gaming and increased occurrence of psychological problems as depression and self-mutilation. These topics also interest researchers within psychology. Traditionally, models of developmental psychology have described the period of adolescence in general terms; as a time of increased independence and detachment from parents, and as a period of turmoil. While there is substantial research on parenting for small children, less has been done on parenting for older children, probably partly due to this idea of the parents’ diminishing role in the adolescents’ lives. In the workshop we will explore ways to understand and investigate parenthood for young teenagers. Rather than constructing this period as totally different from other periods in children’s lives, our approach is to see what comes out of applying analytical perspectives that have been successfully used in studies of parenthood for younger children. How do parents arrange for young girls and boys in ways that both safeguard their wellbeing in the present and support further development towards adult life? This is, then, our outset for exploring parenthood within a cultural psychology framework, using concepts as conduct of everyday life (Dreier, 2016), doing parenthood, practices of continuous care, and variational modes of thinking (Valsiner, 1984). We will present examples from a study following such lines, designed to get knowledge of how parenting for “bigger children” is performed and understood by the parents. The data material consists of detailed interviews with Norwegian and Danish parents in families with children 13-14 years of age, about the everyday life of their child and family. In the workshop we will invite the audience to discuss the need for this kind of knowledge in different fields of professional practices, and open up for cooperation.

  Barnehage er barnevernets mest benyttede tiltak overfor barn i førskolealder. I forbindelse med innføring av kontantstøtten i 1998, ble det uttrykt bekymring for at det ville bli vanskeligere å komme til med dette tiltaket for barn i kontantstøttealder. Fra at barnehage var noe barnevernet kunne tilby familien, som rene gavepakken, er det å takke ja til en barnehageplass nå forbundet med økonomisk tap - og et merkbart tap siden barnevernsfamilier ofte har en svak økonomi, der kontantstøtten kommer godt med. Tallene som presenteres i denne rapporten viser at det er stor stabilitet i bruk av barnehage som hjelpetiltak. Men det betyr ikke at kontantstøtten er uten betydning. Spørsmålet er på på hvilke måter ordningen gjør seg gjeldende i de forhandlinger som foregår mellom foreldre og hjelpeapparatet. For å belyse dette spørsmålet har vi intervjuet helsesøstre, saksbehandlere og førskolelærere om deres erfaringer. Alle gruppene bekymrer seg over at kontantstøtten kan forsinke prosessen med å få foreldrene til å benytte seg av barnehage. Det økonomiske aspektet kommer i tillegg til en rekke andre forhold som gjør at helsesøstre og saksbehandlere synes det er vanskelig å legge press på foreldre til å velge denne formen for omsorg. Og imens går tiden.
