THEORETICAL AND APPLIED ASPECTS OF SOCIAL AND PEDAGOGICAL WORK WITH FAMILIES OF LABOUR MIGRANTS

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of social orphanhood as a result of labour migration of parents. It requires effective assistance to children in combating the negative consequences of the distant way of family existence. The long absence of parents in a child' daily life affects his or her psychical and emotional state. It can lead to deprivation (inability to meet basic life needs for a long time), in particular, sensory deprivation (reduction in the number of sensitive stimulus or their restriction); cognitive deprivation (the structure of the surrounding world is perceived without a clear order and meaning); emotional deprivation (restrictions in establishing emotional contact or interruption of emotional connection); social deprivation (limited ability to understand an independent social role through identification with an adult). It has been established that the basis of social and pedagogical work with children of labour migrants is made up of social work technologies, which include social adaptation; rehabilitation; compensation; prevention; correction; social support; social protection; social security, social control; social propaganda, etc. It has been studied that internally displaced persons (IDPs) need to solve basic household issues and a range of problems faced by distant families (if one of the parents remained in the occupied territory or abroad, and the children in Ukraine), but in an advanced post-traumatic state. As for children of labour migrants (as children in care) and children from internally displaced persons (IDPs), general secondary education establishments (GSEEs) in Rivne provide social and pedagogical measures for adaptation, diagnosis, prevention of these children from falling into the «risk group», psychological correction and psychotherapy, and social support.
