Fenomenologija zlostavljanja i zanemarivanja dece sa smetnjama u razvoju
Fenomenologija zlostavljanja i zanemarivanja dece sa smetnjama u razvoju
Апстракт
Nasilje nad decom predstavlja multifaktorski uslovljen fenomen, koji karakteriše
traumatska interakcija između deteta i roditelja/staratelja, ili nepoznatih osoba,
pri čemu određene karakteristike deteta (na primer, prisustvo razvojnih smetnji), mogu da
predstavljaju značajan faktor rizika. Procenjuje se da je rizik za viktimizaciju u populaciji
dece sa smetnjama u razvoju od 2 do 12 puta veći nego kod dece tipičnog razvoja, zbog
čega je predmet ovog rada fokusiran na kontekst zlostavljanja i zanemarivanja ove
populacije. Cilj je da se, analizom rezultata dostupnih istraživanja, istraži fenomenologija
zanemarivanja i zlostavljanja kod dece sa smetnjama u razvoju. Pored podataka o
učestalosti dat je i osvrt na prepreke u utvrđivanju tačne prevalencije viktimizacije u ovoj
populaciji. Fenomen je analiziran i iz ugla pojedinačnih smetnji, kao i težine simptoma.
Razmatrani su problemi identifikacije zlostavljanja i zanemarivanja dece sa izraženijim
kognitivnim i jezičkim ogranič...enjima i ukazano je na značaj sistemske podrške porodici,
koja bi trebalo da bude usmerena na podizanje roditeljskih kapaciteta.
Violence against children includes various forms of physical, emotional and
sexual abuse. There are numerous factors that can increase the risk of abuse and
neglect, and the presence of developmental disabilities is one of them. Therefore,
this paper aims to explore the phenomenology of neglect and abuse in children
with developmental disabilities.
The results of most studies on child abuse and neglect indicate that children
with developmental disabilities are at greater risk for victimization than typically
developing children. Risk estimates vary, which is a consequence of methodological
differences and shortcomings in research designs. According to some findings,
the risk of victimization is as much as four times higher compared to children with
typical development, and it largely depends on the disability type. Among different
types of disabilities, difficulties in emotional, behavioural and intellectual functioning
and the presence of multiple disabilities bear the gre...atest risk for abuse and
neglect. The nature of the relationship between disability and violence against children
may also depend on the child’s functional level. Research findings indicate that
the risk of maltreatment increases with the severity of behavioural problems, deficits
in social skills and the presence of pronounced communication difficulties. For some
types of disability, the risk for maltreatment is inversely proportional to the level of disability, e.g. children with mild intellectual disability are more often victimized
than children with more pronounced difficulties in intellectual development.
Indicators of abuse and neglect can be physical or behavioural and are essentially
the same for children with developmental disabilities and typically developing
children. However, in children with intellectual disabilities and autism, some
maltreatment forms are more difficult to identify, and the possibilities of obtaining
a verbal statement are limited. Due to problems with abstract thinking, language
comprehension and limited vocabulary, these children cannot report adverse experiences
or adequately answer the questions being asked. In addition, certain behavioural
manifestations of maltreatment can be interpreted as part of the clinical features
of these two neurodevelopmental disorders or, on the contrary, certain phenotypic
characteristics can be mistakenly attributed to a traumatic experience.
The complexity of the victimization phenomenon of children with disabilities
implies the need for an interdisciplinary approach and comprehensive systemic solutions
in dealing with this problem. From the moment of developmental problems
detection, there is a noticeable lack of systemic family support, which should include
clear guidelines for exercising the right to health care and social protection, as well
as counselling on a child’s developmental possibilities, and application of principles
and strategies of behaviorally oriented interventions in child-rearing.
The author’s wish is to motivate experts in different fields to carry out a more
detailed analysis of the phenomenology of abuse and neglect in the population
with disabilities in our country, from which guidelines for preventive activities implementation
would arise.
