The purpose of the essay is to draw attention to my approach in relation to a boy I choose to call Emil, and how I can increase my understanding of his behavior. I explore conceivable reasons for why he breaks down so often, especially when other children are given attention. Is he simply unusually egoistic, and to a large degree only able to see to his own interests, or am I overlooking the real reasons for his actions.In order to explain the reasons for Emil?s apparent frustration in sensitive situations, I explore the significance of attachment theory. I argue about possible effects of Emil?s parents? way of describing and guiding him, as well as how I, and my colleagues, risk fulfilling and amplifying negative expectations.As the prime reason for his repeated sense of unhappiness seems linked to a lack of empathy, I explore different ways of understanding this, as well as how I might contribute to fostering compassion.

The study seeks to from professionals perspectives describe and analyze the beliefs they have about women with intellectual disabilities and their pregnancy and motherhood. We will also discuss and reflect on the possible support that professionals find important for women to handle pregnancy and motherhood. The information has been gathered through interviews with five different professions that have come in contact with the audience in their work. In our material we found three distinctive perspectives: a child´s perspective, a parent´s perspective and a community perspective. From these perspectives, we could find many similarities in the informants´ perceptions, which resulted in different themes.

The purpose of this essay is to analyse the descriptions of young girls' experiences of internet contacts, which have led up to sexual abuse. The aim is to give additional understanding and knowledge concerning grooming.       Grooming means that somebody gets in contact with someone else with the intention of committing sexual violations at a later stage. In most cases this concerns adults who contact children. We have chosen to confine ourselves to focusing on the grooming on internet that has happened to girls. By means of thematic analyses of texts from the books Jag kände mig speciell, grooming på internet, 2012 and Alexandramannen, vår tids största nätsexhärva, 2009, we have found certain themes and linked them up with previous research-work and also theory of social psychology.

SammanfattningAtt utbilda och erbjuda föräldrar stöd i föräldraskapet är inget nytt fenomen, utan har skett på olika sätt sedan 1600-talet. Synen på föräldrar har genom tiderna haft olika fokus, vilket lett till att insatserna för att stödja föräldrarna har varierat. Idag finns ett överflöd av information, råd, utbildning och kurser kring föräldraskapet. Hur föräldrar ska göra eller inte göra diskuteras flitigt i olika medier. Därmed får vi en viss bild av föräldrarollen.

Bakgrund: 2011 registrerades 147 135 slutenvårdstillfällen för barn. Detta betyder att föräldrar har en stor del i vården vilket gör det absolut nödvändigt att uppmärksamma deras behov och önskemål om delaktighet. Problem: Tidigare forskning visar att sjuksköterskor har stora krav och förväntningar på vad föräldradelaktigheten ska innefatta, något som kan skilja sig avsevärt från vad föräldrarna anser.  Syfte: Syftet var att belysa föräldrars upplevelser av delaktighet i vården av sina barn. Metod: Litteraturstudie enligt Juniarti och Evans beskrivande syntesmodell av tidigare vårdvetenskaplig forskning. Resultat: Syntesen gav upphov till fem teman och nio subteman: Upplevelser av föräldraexpertis; Upplevelser av informationsutbyte (Inkännandet av rollen, Medicinsk information och Kontinuerlig dialog kring barnets vård); Upplevelser av delaktighetens olika grader (Valfrihet, Plikt och ansvar, Exkludering och Tvång); Upplevelser av att utföra vård och omsorg (Naturlig omsorg och Professionell vård); Upplevelser av stöttning.

I dagens samhälle uppstår det nya friskolor samt vanliga kommunala skolor, som erbjuder något extra utöver den svenska läroplanen. Montessoripedagogiken är en pedagogik som lockar människor, vilket jag har fått tagit del av i mitt arbete med uppsatsen. Trots att själva grundfilosofin uppstod under ledning av Maria Montessori för över hundra år sedan lever den fortfarande kvar. Det svenska Montessoriförbundet verkar för att breda ut Montessoripedagogiken i Sverige och de deltar i mässor och liknande för att sprida information. Syftet med arbetet är att dels beskriva och förklara vilka faktorer som spelar in för några föräldrars val till att deras barn ska skolas in i en förskola/skola med Montessoripedagogik, dels ta del i några Montessoripedagogers sätt att samverka med föräldrar/vårdnadshavare.
