Children deprived of parental care as a persisting social problem in Romania
Article Abstract:
Romanian government's response to the social problem of children deprived of parental care and the consequences of institutional action are examined. A combination of low socioeconomic status, lack of parenthood-centered education, and the legacy of communist-era expectations regarding the state's responsibility in childrearing have contributed substantially to the problem.
