Abstract

In order to provide a broad background to and contextualize the purpose of this study, the major issues relevant to the phenomenon of street children will briefly be overviewed. As point of departure, different conceptualizations of childhood and the resultant varied views on aspects of streetism, such as child-labour, homelessness and adaptive engagement to street life will indicate the complexity of the issue. An analysis of different perspectives on how to define street children, is closely related to the previous issue, and will result in an Educational Psychological definition of street children. This definition will provide a specific focus for the study, wherein the physical, moral, social and educational-psychological development of street children will briefly be over-viewed. This will be followed by a review of related literature, the delimitation of this study, the problem statement and hypotheses, a clarification of terms and finally an overview of the rest of this study
