New perspectives for children: Brave stories from Vorarlberg

The Vorarlberg children's village recently published exciting stories and insights in the new perspective journal that put the courage and development of children in the spotlight. Stories of children for children who show what makes a good growth. One of the central messages? Add freedom and support children instead of braking them.

In the past three years, the Vorarlberg children's village has collected numerous childhood stories from the region that online on the blog wir-kinder-vorarlbergs.at be published. These stories offer insights into the experiences of parents and caregivers who have played an important role in the life of the children.

Inspirational childhood memories

The new journal presents 15 out of a total of 140 stories that document growing up in Vorarlberg. Among them is the moving life story of Aydin Aktas, who grew up in two families and is now considered one of the first Turkish -born bankers in the region. Another story comes from Yvonne Fussi, who found a new home in a children's Dorff family when she no longer thought this was possible. Today she works with traumatized children and gives them a new perspective.

The stories make it clear how important it is to have children made their mistakes. Klaus Drexel, a successful businessman and mountain rescuer, tells of a challenging childhood, in which he found support and role models. Julia Zambonin emphasizes that her father's words strengthened her entrepreneurial confidence: "Passes and steps are also in the right direction."

Expert opinions on the subject of child development also find their place in the journal. The psychologist Anne Küster describes a strong bond between children and their caregivers as a "great investment", which is important for the entire life. Children need a loving and reliable environment to develop healthy.

Adventure and experiences for children

In the context of less and less space for playing and the influence of digital media, it is urgently called for children to trust children more and to have independent experiences gained them. An example of this is the Kids Buin climbing tower, which is operated by the Vorarlberg children's village. Here children can test their limits under expert care and gain valuable lessons from their experiences. So far, over 1,500 children and adolescents and adults have used this opportunity.

The perspective journal not only offers gripping stories, but also practical tips from specialists from the Vorarlberg children's village to support families in everyday life and promote positive growth. Readers can either read the journal online on the website of the children's village or order free of charge by contacting those responsible.
