Numerous empirical studies have reported the negative consequences
of war on the physical and psychological well-being of children.
What do children understand about war? How does that understanding
help them make sense of the violent world of which they are part?
What do we, as educators, parents and family service providers,
need to know in order to prepare ourselves for talking to children
about war-related issues? This study describes and compares
Taiwanese American (TA) children's and Non-Taiwanese American (NTA)
children's perceptions of war. A qualitative research design was
adopted. In-depth interviews were conducted with 50 TA and NTA
children in the U.S. Data were collected from 2002 through March
2003 before the United States entered in to the war with Iraq.
Perception differences with regard to gender and age were explored.
Children's reported conversations with their parents about war also
were examined. Findings of this study can be useful for helping
educators, parents, teachers and other adults discuss war and peace
issues with children from different family/cultural backgrounds.
