초록

본 연구는 가정위탁에서 생활하다가 가정복귀된 아동들이 겪었던 경험의 내용을 살펴보기 위해 Van-Manen (1990)의 해석학적 현상학적 방법으로 접근하였으며 총 5명의 연구참여자들을 대상으로 심층면담을 실시하였으며 그 결과를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 연구참여자 5명은 자신의 의지와 상관없이 가정위탁진입과 복귀 결정이 이루어지는 과정에서 심리적 혼란을 많이 보였다. 위탁가정에서 원가정을 그리워하며 과거로의 회귀본능을 보였지만 준비가 되지 않은 상태에서 가정복귀 되는 과정에서 심리적인 갈등을 표출하였다. 가정복귀 이후 주변화 현상을 보이며 친부모와의 갈등을 지속적으로 노출하는 경향이 농후했다. 어떤 참여자들은 그룹홈이나 가정위탁으로 재진입을 하면서 심리적 불안정성을 많이 표출하였지만 서서히 갈등단계를 지나 친부모에 대한 관점을 새롭게 받아들이고 자기성을 회복하려는 노력을 보였다. 연구자들은 본 연구결과와 논의를 기초로 하여 이들에 대한 다양한 실천적 프로그램을 제언하였다.

Abstract

In this study, the experiences of the children who have undergone foster care and have been reunited with the family were investigated with the approach of hermeneutical phenomenology developed by Van-Manen (1990). The in-depth interview was performed with a total of five participants, and the interview result was analyzed. The analysis showed that the five participants experienced psychological confusion in the process where the decisions about entering to foster care and reuniting with the family were made regardless of their will. When they were in the families providing foster care, they missed the original family and displayed homing instinct toward the past. However, they also displayed psychological conflict in the process of returning to the original family without proper preparation. After being reunited with their original family, the participants showed marginalization with a strong tendency of continuously exposing a conflict with their biological parents. Some participants showed much psychological instability as they were re-entering to a group home or foster care, but they gradually started to accept a new point of view toward their biological parents and establish their own self-identity, as the stage of conflict passed. This article proposes various practical programs for the children who have undergone foster care on the basis of the results and discussion of this study.
