從新住民女性親子教養與生活適應談多元文化的輔導政策和教育工作

New Female Immigrants Becoming Parents and Adapting to Life in Taiwan: A Multicultural Discussion for Guidance Policy and Educational Work

因跨國婚姻日漸普遍，新住民家庭及其子女的數量逐漸增多，新住民已超越原住民，成為台灣四大族群之一，而新住民子女就讀中小學的比率已達10％。在台灣人口結構愈趨向於多元的同時，有關新住民多元文化的教育與輔導工作，更加值得我們重視。本文就新住民女性面臨的壓力與問題，新住民親子教養與生活適應提出探討，並以香港、加拿大的移民政策為例提出建言、做成結論，以期達到更完善的新住民多元文化教育與輔導工作。 An increase in transnational marriages amongst couples has resulted in an increase in immigration including the children of immigrants. This increase has reached the stage where the number of immigrants has surpassed the Aborigines to become one of the four ethnic groups in Taiwan. In Taiwanese schools, the proportion of children of immigrants attending primary and secondary schools has reached 10%. As Taiwan's population structure tends to be pluralistic, more attention is paid to the education of, and counseling in multiculturalism for immigrants to Taiwan. In this paper, we discuss the pressure and problems faced by new immigrant women, the parenting and life adaptation of these new residents, and give suggestions based on the immigration policies of Hong Kong and Canada as exemplars to better educate and counsel these new immigrants.
