The research objectives are: To determine and analyze the role of community supervisors in carrying out the mentoring function for children in conflict with the law and adult clients. With these objectives, the problems discussed are: How is the role of community supervisors in carrying out the function of mentoring for children in conflict with the law and adult clients. With the formulation of the problem, the research method used is normative juridical research with a statutory approach (statute approach), conceptual approach (conceptual approach), and case approach (case approach). The legal materials collected are: primary legal materials, secondary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. Analysis of the collected legal materials is carried out by inventorizing, systematizing and interpreting. The results showed that: the role of community supervisors in providing assistance to children in conflict with the law can be divided into 3 (three) stages, namely the stage before the court session (pre adjudication), namely the investigation, the stage during the court session (adjudication), namely assistance at trial and the stage after the court (post adjudication), namely supervision and guidance for children in conflict with the law. In terms of mentoring adult clients, community supervisors play a role in providing assistance and conducting community research on adult clients based on the provisions of Article 54 paragraph (1) letters g, h, I, j of Law No. 1 of 2023, although previously it was also regulated in Article 38 paragraph (4) of Government Regulation No. 31 of 1999. In Law No. 1 of 2023, the implementation of assistance and community research can be carried out for all criminal offenses and community research, while in Government Regulation No. 31 of 1999 only for certain criminal offenses. It is hoped that there will be good coordination and synergy between fellow law enforcers for the best interests of children and adult clients in accordance with applicable regulations and it is hoped that there will be the development of other knowledge from Community Supervisors outside of legal science that can be used and implemented in handling cases of children in conflict with the law and adult clients.

The Effects of Visitation and Child Support on the Adjustment of Divorced Mothers and Adolescent Children

This study sought to examine the effects of current single-parent family policies on the psychological adaptation of family members in single-parent homes, while also confirming that visitation and child support are indeed in the best interests of children in such cases. An online survey was conducted in 2021 for divorced single mothers and their children (aged 11 to 19) living in metropolitan regions (Seoul, Kyunggi, and Incheon). A total of 171 dyads, comprised of single mothers and their adolescent children, participated in this study. Using the collected data, descriptive statistical analysis and structural equation modeling were performed. The major results of this study are as follows. First, visitation with fathers was not significantly associated with self-esteem, aggression, or life satisfaction among the participating adolescent children. On the other hand, when child support was paid, aggression among adolescents was lower than when child support was not paid. Second, neither visitation nor child support was significantly associated with single mothers’ levels of depression and life satisfaction. The enforcement of child support guarantees the welfare of children and conforms to the principle of promoting the best interests of minor children. Therefore, child support should be continuously encouraged and supported by agencies in accordance with current law. In order for the implementation of visitation to be in the best interest of the child, the amount and quality of visitation should be secured so that the child can still recognize their non-custodial parents as “caregivers.”

보육교사의 인권 감수성과 권리존중 보육실행과의 관계

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between childcare teachers' human rights sensitivity and rights-respecting childcare practices. To this end, data were collected and analyzed for 322 teachers who participated in education for childcare teachers in Chungbuk in 2023. First, the level of human rights sensitivity of childcare teachers was not high, and the perception of results was the highest by sub-factors. In terms of human rights-related items by episode, the right to freedom and safety of the body was the highest, and the right to education of the disabled was the lowest. Second, the overall level of childcare teachers' respect for infant rights was relatively high. By sub-area, toilet visits (basic needs) were the highest in daily work and respect, and special activities were the lowest. Among the best interests of children, respect for intention was the highest and information provision was the lowest. Third, the higher the human rights sensitivity of childcare teachers, the higher the level of child care that respects rights. By sub-area, going to the bathroom (basic desire) showed the highest correlation. Through these research results, it is necessary to prepare and practice measures to improve the human rights sensitivity of childcare teachers in order to have a high level of respect for rights and continuously implement them in the childcare field. This study is meaningful in providing implications for preparing various support measures to improve human rights sensitivity in order to implement childcare with respect for rights.

Parental gender affirmation and children’s best interests in Australian family law

This article examines how the Australian family courts have considered parental gender affirmation when determining the best interests of children in post-separation parenting disputes under Part VII of the Family Law Act 1975 (Cth). It analyses three features of the jurisprudence which arguably challenge the acceptance of transgender and gender diverse (‘TGD’) families in Australian family law: the potential risk of harm to children, and the impacts on parenting capacity, from a parent affirming their gender; emphasis upon the uniqueness of parental gender affirmation as a childhood experience, with attendant risks to children from ‘public’ exposure; and the importance of language to the social affirmation of gender and for representing the perspectives and experiences of TGD parents and their children. The author argues that as more post-separation parenting disputes involving parental gender affirmation come before the Australian family courts, they will contribute to making TGD families more ‘visible’ in law, thereby promoting greater understanding of a family form that may still be labelled ‘ambiguous’, ‘novel’ or lacking an ‘established social or legal script’.

Hybrid processes within parenting plan assessments: Rationale and an illustrative model

AbstractParenting plan Assessments, also known as child custody evaluations, are forensic psychological investigations into the needs of children, the parenting capacities of their caregivers, and the resulting fit between the children's needs and caregiver capacities. Typically, they result in recommendations that are, in the opinion of the assessor, formulated to meet the best interests of children regarding a parenting plan, child sharing, parental responsibilities and ancillary services that are likely to support the children's optimal functioning as well as the functioning of the now reconfigured family. Such assessments are part of a pathway to untangling conflicts between the parents regarding the most appropriate parenting plan for the reconfigured family. Paradoxically, the assessment process can exacerbate the conflict, entrench parental polarization, and create lingering feelings of helplessness, frustration, and disempowerment in the parents. This article provides a rationale for the use of a hybrid process that incorporates alternative dispute resolution as an integrated part of the parenting plan assessment and provides an illustrative model of such a hybrid process.

Judicial decision‐making in family court involving children with autism spectrum disorder

AbstractThe prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children and adolescents has increased over the past decade. Consequently, the courts and experts are more likely to be exposed to these children whose needs are highly heterogeneous. The present study aims to document judicial decision‐making about children with autism spectrum as well as the parenting recommendations made by experts involved in these cases. There were 104 court decisions reviewed in Quebec over the past ten years. The results show that 85.6% of the decisions included a child custody assessment and that judges are more likely to order primary care to mother (56%). However, shared parenting (27%) and primary care to the father (17%) were also ordered in disputes involving an autistic child. Bivariate analyses revealed that challenges with parental monitoring and supervision were associated with court‐ordered parenting arrangements. The present study revealed that a child custody assessment as well as father custody are more often observed than in the general population. This study highlights the need for further research to shed light on the best interests of children with ASD following the separation of their parents.

DISPENSASI PERKAWINAN DAN KEBIJAKAN POLITIK HUKUM DI INDONESIA

The legal politics of marriage dispensation in Indonesia are related to legal policies related to the Marriage Law. Marriage dispensation is regulated in the Law due to the limitation of the minimum age for marriage which was changed to 19 years for both sexes. The legal policy of marital dispensation is influenced by philosophical and sociological considerations such as justice, benefit, expediency, and legal certainty. PERMA Number 5 of 2019 provides guidelines and standards for judges in considering and determining marriage dispensations and paying attention to the best interests of children. However, clearer clarification is needed from the State regarding emergency situations that allow for dispensation of marriage and stricter procedures for dispensing marriage to prevent early marriage.

Abducted Child’s Best Interests versus the Theoretical Child’s Best Interests: Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific

A recent trend can be seen in jurisprudence concerning the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, at least in the Australasia/Pacific region. Courts are now more mindful of the abducted child in particular and will investigate the true impacts of returning the child to determine what is in their best interests, particularly in cases of domestic violence. This is a departure from the long-standing emphasis on returning abducted children promptly to their country of habitual residence, after which the courts of that country will make the final decision, because it is generally in the best interests of children to deter child abduction. This article compares various jurisdictions’ approaches with the lens of whether the courts are preferring the particular child over the ‘theoretical’ child.

Inadequate Criminal Policies as Threats to the Best Interests of Children Residing in Prisons with their Mothers

Abstract Although the number of children residing in correctional institutions with their mothers in Indonesia is low, this has triggered issues related to the relevant policies and laws. This study examines the perspective of criminal laws and human rights policies regarding children residing in correctional institutions with their mothers and their implications for the fulfilment of the children’s rights. This study finds that the group of children does not belong to the category of individuals requiring special treatment. The Indonesian criminal justice system does not have a legal framework for handling those children. The correctional institutions failed completely to realise the children’s rights, due to the inability of the officers of the correctional institutions in interpreting and implementing the bic principle. Due to the absence of government’s clear guidelines, the treatment for such children, which is mostly adapted to their internal policies, varies among Indonesian correctional institutions.

Defining the use of special educational needs documentation - positionings of preschool principals

ABSTRACT Preschools in Sweden are facing increasing requirements for introducing quality systems, and documentation practices are becoming a central part of the preschools’ work. This article examines how Swedish principals perceive the assignment of documentation regarding special educational needs (SEN). Drawing on the theoretical work of Schön, this study explores how preschool principals describe the purpose and value of SEN documentation and their own role in its practice. The findings suggest three positions towards SEN documentation, described as: Resisting, which questions the purpose of the documentation and its target group; Accepting, where documentation is used as a useful administrative tool and for structuring working practices; and, an Enthusiastic position, highlighting the benefits of documentation for individual children, staff members, and the organisation. The findings indicate that principals have a large scope for autonomy to shape and use different types of professional knowledge, which reflects different articulations of the best interests of children.

Children Crossing Borders: Latin American Migrant Children. Edited by Alejandra J. Josiowicz and Irasema Coronado

Children Crossing Borders: Latin American Migrant Children is an important and welcomed contribution to the expanding studies of child migration. Through conscientious fieldwork and content analysis, the authors present ten chapters that center migration and borders and how these two concepts destabilize the lives of migrant and refugee children. The chapters discuss the social and cultural borders and disruptions experienced by migrant and refugee children as well as the lack of policies and solutions on the part of federal and state agencies and administrators. In their conclusions, the authors offer unique strategies of resilience and adaptability that work to mitigate the displacement and trauma experienced by the children. The book weaves together interdisciplinary, intersectional, and transnational approaches and provides an important contribution to Migration, Border and Borderland Studies. Throughout the book, borders are approached as dynamic concepts, as central sites of political, social, and cultural power struggles (p. 11). Part I focuses on the educational experiences of both migrant children who are U.S. citizens repatriated to their parent’s home countries and children from Latin America now living in the United States. For many of these children, educational experiences are defined by linguistic borders that lead to social, cultural, and educational disruptions and which force the children to reimagine their identities along transnational lines. Part II focuses on how literature, art, and culture can be used to present and explain borders as physical and symbolic spaces that destabilize the lives of migrant and refugee children. Until recently, these children were invisible or erased by racist, xenophobic, or imperialistic stereotypes. Through resilient forms of children’s and young adult literature, art projects that center walls as obstacles to mobility, and teaching approaches using testimonials, the authors address ways to combat racism and xenophobia while helping the children confront and challenge the very borders they are crossing. Part III deals with the best interests of migrant and refugee children, or lack thereof, and provides analysis of legislation, policies, and the global labor markets that never consider the best interest of the child. The chapters describe the structural traumas inflicted on the children when their best interests are excluded. Subsequently, the authors provide policy recommendations that aim to correct these omissions.

Принцип наилучшего обеспечения интересов в концепции конституционно-правового статуса детей, оставшихся без попечения родителей

The imperfection of the legal regulation of relations in the field of protecting the rights and interests of children left without parental care, the inconsistency with international standards in the field of the rights of the child, determines the need to solve the problem of determining the constitutional and legal status of this category of children. The aim of the study is to evaluate the principle of the best interests of the child in the concept of constitutional and legal status and its implementation in the norms of domestic legislation. Using the comparative legal method, the article analyzes international conventions, national legislative acts, in which the operation of the principle of the best interests of children is manifested. The application of the analysis made it possible to come to the conclusion that in the Constitution of the Russian Federation the foundations of the legal status of children left without parental care are determined through the operation of the constitutional and legal principle of equality. With the help of a systematic approach, it is substantiated that the concept of the constitutional and legal status of children left without parental care should be formed in terms of guaranteeing their rights on the basis of “the best interests”. As a result, of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that the concept of the best interests of children left without parental care determines the need to consolidate this principle, as well as determine the scope of its application.
