  • 지금까지의 한부모가족에 대한 연구들의 대다수는 미혼 한부모가족의 형성사유를 구분하지 않아, 청소년한부모를 특정하여 직접 자료조사를 한 연구는 많지 않다. 본 연구의 목적은 청소년부모의 임신, 출산, 양육이 안전하게 이루어지도록 지원하기 위한 정책 개발의 기초 자료를 청소년부모의 양육과 관련한 실태조사를 통해 얻고자 한다. 그러나 현실적으로 청소년부모를 대상으로 하기에는 어려움이 따르므로 동일한 문제를 내포한 10대에 첫 자녀를 출산한 미혼한부모를 대상으로 선정하였다. 연구목적을 위하여 설정한 연구문제는 '첫째, 이들의 기본적인 특성은 어떠한가. 둘째, 임신에서 양육 초기의 실태는 어떠한가. 셋째, 자녀 양육의 실태는 어떠한가. 넷째, 자립의 가능성은 어떠한가' 이다. 본 연구는 청소년부모의 지원근거를 마련하기 위하여 10대에 첫 자녀를 출산한 미혼한부모를 대상으로 임신에서 출산, 양육초기까지의 일련의 과정을 직접 조사를 통해 탐색한 연구로서 기존의 연구들과 차별점을 갖고 있으며, 비양육자인 자녀의 생부의 역동을 함께 추측할 수 있는 자료를 제시하였다. 또한 저출산의 극복이라는 중차대한 국가의 과업에서 청소년 산모의 건강권을 바탕으로 아동의 건강한 성장을 함께 논의하였다는 점에서 의미가 있다. 자녀를 출산하고 양육하는 일은 개인, 사회가 함께 고민하여야 하며, 그 과정에서 아이 생부에 관한 사회의 무관심을 환기시키고 아이 생부를 양육에 참여할 수 있도록 하는 방향으로의 전환을 모색할 필요가 있다. 청소년부모와 미혼부의 존재를 인정하고 이들을 다양한 가족의 하나로 기능할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 청소년복지지원법과 저출산고령사회기본법에서 청소년부모에 대한 지원의 근거가 명시되어야 하며, 10대의 청소년으로서 부모역할을 수행하는 부모, 한부모들에 대해서는 가정의 형태에 관계없이 이용가능한 시스템의 도입과 10대 부모를 대상으로 하는 자녀양육과 관련한 정보 및 양육프로그램이 전문가에 의해 개발되어야 하며 이를 포괄하는 가족정책의 수립과 가족자원과 지역자원을 적용할 수 있는 더욱 구체적인 후속 연구들이 필요함을 제시하였다.

We surveyed 895 teenage girls(15-19 years of age) living in a rural community in Korea for their cigarette smoking habits and the relationship between smoking status of subjects demographic variables and view on other's smoking. Of the subjects 11.6% stated that they were currently smoking and 67.3% of current smokers began smoking regularly sometimes before high school. The average smoking period of current smokers waas 20.6$\pm$1.5 mounts and they smoked 7.5 cigarettes/day on an average. Their main reason for starting to smoke was curiosity. The parents attitude for their offspring was more undemocratic in smokers. Smokers had lower academic sachievement and they had the family system such as single parent more undemocratic in smokers. Smokers had lower academic achievement and they had the family sysstem such as single parent family or divorced parent family more often than did non-smokers. Smoking status of subjects was positively related to that of their parents siblings and friends respectively. Smokers accepted others' smoking more positively than did non-smokers. Above results show that cigarette smoking is prevalent among teenage girls living in a rural community and smoking of subjects are affected by demographic variables and their view on others' smoking.

  • This study aimed to examine the impact of academic background on full-time employment and on other important issues concerning job security and care faced by single-parent youths. The study alse aimed to verify the effect of related support on full-time employment. The analysis targeted 262 single parents under 24 years of age who were raising their children, and the main results were as follows: First, the ratio of adulthood was high for those who were employed, and the academic achievement of full-time workers was also significantly high. However, the rate of discontinuities in school was also high among those who were employed, especially those seeking full-time employment, whose desire to stay in school was higher than that of other difficulties of single, teenage parents. Second, the vocational education experience of single, teenage parents was 32 percent overall, and the rate of those seeking full-time employment was also relatively high, reaching 44 percent. However, the results of this study did not verify the direct effect of vocational education experience on full-time employment nor the interaction effect of the academic background. Therefore, a thorough review of the effectiveness of a vocational education program for young, single parents wishing to gain employment is necessary. Third, the overall rate of those who received a public nanny service was 31 percent, while the rate of full-time workers who experienced this service was significantly higher reaching 59 percent. In the research model verification, single parents who received a public nanny service were 3.8 times more likely to get a full-time job than those who did not, and receiving a public nanny service showed a regulatory effect between academic studies and full-time employment. The higher the academic level of the parents, the higher their possibility of full-time employment.
