OPSOMMING

Die uitgangspunt van hierdie artikel is die stryd van gemarginaliseerdes met spesifieke verwysing na seuns in die kinderhuis. Ondersoek is gedoen na die spesifieke omstandighede waaronder kinders uit hulle ouerhuise verwyder is, hulle geskiedenis, hulle opname en aanpassing in die kinderhuis. Bybelse beginsels vir die versorging van gemarginaliseerde (dus ook kinderhuiskinders) word aangedui terwyl aandag geskenk word aan God se spesiale sorg vir gemarginaliseerdes. Aandag is ook gegee aan die Bybelse mandaat, opdrag en verantwoordelikheid van die kerk om by die lewens en sorg van kinderhuis-kinders betrokke te wees. Gevolgtrekkings wat uit die beskik-bare literatuur gemaak is, is aangevul met 'n beperkte fenome-nologiese waarneming wat deur middel van 'n vraelys gefasiliteer is. Die vraelys is na aanleiding van die probleemstelling en hipoteses geformuleer en die verwagting is geskep dat die gebrek aan betrokkenheid van lidmate en predikante by die lewens van kinders in die kinderhuis sowel as by die kinderhuis se werksaamhede, hiermee blootgelê kan word.

ABSTRACT

The plight of the marginalised was the point of departure for this research, with special emphasis on orphan boys. The specific circumstances underwhich the child was removed from his negative circumstances, his past, his adoption in the children's home and the special needs and problems he has in the children's home are explored. In this article, Biblical principles for the care of orphanaged children were generated and specific attention was given to God's emphasis on and passion for the marginalised - with special reference to orphanaged children. Attention is given to the Biblical mandate, responsibility and command to the church to be involved in the lives of orphanaged children. Conclusions are derived from the literature study as well as from a limited phenomenological study which was done through analyses of questionnaires designed to address the research hypotheses. It is hoped that reasons for the lack of interest in and involvement with orphanaged children will be revealed.
