Description
Summary:In this paper the author examines the self-reported aspects of vulnerability of children in Estonia. The study is based on the data of four focus groups with 12-year-old children, conducted in Estonian schools in 2018–2019. The author gives an overview of the most important findings and compares those to a broader framework and understanding of vulnerability in childhood research. For example, the article describes the importance of secure relations between a child and the family or a child and other close persons. The article exemplifies that material resources are important to children but not more important than a secure home, good relations, and free-time activities. According to the opinions of the respondents, too many duties, poor online security, global environmental problems, international conflicts, hierarchical relations with teachers and negative messages of the mass media are the most worrying aspects.
