Abstract

Staklena djeca su djeca koja odrastaju u obitelji sa bratom ili sestrom s teškoćama u razvoju ili kroničnim bolestima. Oni su, kao i njihovi roditelji, tijekom odrastanja i života izloženi teškim i stresnim situacijama te zbog toga imaju jedinstvena iskustva koja imaju utjecaj na njihovu budućnost. Kvaliteta života je konstrukt koji se sastoji od više dimenzija, a sadrži i subjektivnu i objektivnu komponentu. Kod staklene djece najbitnija je subjektivna dimenzija koja može opisati njihova iskustva te socijalna podrška i psihičko zdravlje. Da bi se što lakše prilagodili i da bi njihova kvaliteta života bila što bolja, potrebno je i njima i njihovim obiteljima pružiti adekvatnu i pravovremenu socijalnu podršku na njima prihvatljiv način i na svim razinama te tako prevenirati loše životne ishode i pretvoriti ih u pozitivne.

Abstract (english)

Glass children are children who grow up in a family with a brother or sister with developmental disabilities or chronic illness. They, like their parents, are exposed to difficult and stressful situations during their growing up and life, and because of this they have unique experiences that have an impact on their future. Quality of life is a construct that consists of several dimensions and contains both subjective and objective components. With glass children, the most important is the subjective dimension that can describe their experiences as well as social support and psychological health. In order for them to adapt as easily as possible and for their quality of life to be as good as possible, it is necessary to provide them and their families with adequate and timely social support in a manner acceptable to them and at all levels, thus preventing bad life outcomes and turning them into positive ones.
