Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the essence of disabled parents' experiences of raising children. Method: Five families, which were composed with parents with physical disabilities and children, were participated into this study. One-time interview was conducted with mother of each family and it was recorded, coded, and analysed using method of Giorgi's phenomenological study. Result: Three superordinate themes, nine subordinate themes, and 22 concepts were derived. The essence of disabled parents' experiences of raising children was "disabled parents' growth with their children despite of prejudice." This represented that even though disabled parents faced with diverse kinds of difficulties, they put their heart and soul into raising their children and they encouraged their children to have their feet on the ground firmly. Finally, disabled parents went out into the world with their children. Conclusion: The current study illustrated how those stories about raising children could be interpreted from the perspective of the family relation, and suggested possible ways to support disabled parents for raising children.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of adult children's marriage-delay on their parents' mental health. Furthermore, this study investigated how the influence of adult children's marriage-delay on parents' mental health could vary depending on the coresidence and employment status of the marriage-delayed adult children. Method: Two waves of Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (KLoSA) were used for the analyses. Multiple regression models were conducted with 2,938 Korean parents who had at least one child, regardless of gender (aged 33~44). Results: First, adult children's marriage-delay was related to lower levels of parents' life satisfaction. Second, the levels of parents' life satisfaction were low regardless of residing with their marriage-delayed adult children, and the parents who were not living with their marriage-delayed adult children showed lower levels of life satisfaction than parents living with marriage-delayed adult children. Third, only the parents with unemployed marriage-delayed adult children showed significantly higher levels of depression. However, the levels of parents' life satisfaction were low regardless of the employment of marriage-delayed adult children, and the parents of unemployed marriage-delayed adult children showed lower levels of life satisfaction than the parents of employed marriage-delayed adult children. Conclusions: It is necessary to consider the effects of marriage, employment and coresidence of adult children on their parents in order to enhance the mental health of the parents. Also, the effects of marriage-delay on intimate relationships, such as family dynamics, need to be explored more in further research.

본 연구는 보호아동이 친가정으로 복귀하는 과정에서 친부모의 경험이 어떠한지를 살펴보고자 친부모 11명을 대상으로 심층 인터뷰한 후 근거이론방법으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 인과적 조건은 '자녀를 맡김'이 도출되었고, 현상은 '형벌같은 삶', '자녀와의 분리상황에 적응함'으로 나타났다. 이에 맥락적 조건은 '가족 신념', '자녀양육 신념'이며, 중재적 조건은 '재기할 힘', '뜻대로 안됨'이었다. 작용/상호 작용 전략은 '양육기반 마련하기', '부모 역할 지속하기', '적응에 저항하기', '자녀복귀시기 조정하기'로 나타났다. 결과로는 '돌봄 부담감', '맡기고 싶음', '가족의식 강화됨', '미래가 희망적임'이 도출되었다. 과정분석 결과, 시간의 경과에 따라 (1) 자녀위탁단계: 자녀를 위탁한 모진 부모가 됨, (2) 자녀 위탁 후 단계: 자녀복귀위해 무너진 가정세움, (3) 자녀 친가정 복귀 단계: 나, 가족, 세상에 떳떳함 (4) 자녀 친가정 복귀 이후 단계: 재위탁 경계하며 가정지킴으로 구분되었고 보호아동의 친부모들은 자녀를 친가정으로 복귀시키는 과정에서 끊임없는 긴장의 연속을 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 보호아동의 친가정 복귀를 촉진하기 위한 실천적 대안을 제시하였다.

This study investigated social determinants and their interaction effects on the health of school-aged children in diverse environmental factors pertaining to the individual, family, and peers from an ecological systematic perspective. Data were drawn from the first wave of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS) developed by the National Youth Policy Institute and conducted in 2010. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Cronbach ${\alpha}$, correlation, and hierarchical regression analysis using SPSS ver. 18. The results from this study showed that sex and age were related to the health of school-aged children, as social determinants. Self-rated levels of the health of boys and younger children were more positive than girls and older children; in addition, levels of self-resilience, satisfaction of peer relation, and parenting rearing attitude were found to have a positive impact on self-rated levels of the health of school-aged children as protective factors. Especially, according to the result of interaction analysis between factors, self-resilience, and parenting rearing attitude were moderators of the effects on between sex and household income and self-rated level of the health of school-aged children respectively.
