Mogućnosti prevencije rizičnih ponašanja djece predškolske dobi

With each passing day there are more and more children who show different, often unacceptable behaviours in their families, in public places in kindergartens or schools. There are many reasons why children begin to adopt patterns of risky behavior. One of them is the inability to meet the child's needs (from family, immediate and wider community) in a suitable manner. The need of early detection of risk factors from the immediate environment of the child which may be the causes of risky behaviour are becoming increasingly important, especially because children at who are noticed early risky behavior are at risk, which would later be identified as social incompetence. Risky behaviors are signs of exposure to the risk of a child or call for help. In order to prevent occurrence of children's risky behaviors, it is necessary to act preventively. Pedagogical prevention should be well designed and implemented in the educational process. This paper will attempt to define the risk behaviors of children, will display some of the risk factors that encourage risky behavior and emphasize the importance of quality educational prevention.

The Solidarity of Distance1

Solidarity in the classic sense pertains to a cohesion among humans that entails physical contact, shared emotions, and common goals or projects. Characteristic cases are to be found among families, close friends, or co-workers. The present paper, in contrast, treats a phenomenon of the solidarity of distance, a solidarity based in fear of certain others and in incompetence to interact with them. The starting point for this analysis is the person who is motivated to interact with others who are unfamiliar or fear-provoking. Given that the fear and momentary social incompetence do not allow a full interaction to ensue, the individual will move toward solidarity with those others on a symbolic level. In this manner the motivation to approach the others is acted upon while physical and emotional distance is retained.
