YEREVAN, JUNE 7, ARMENPRESS: Restructuring of orphanage "Zatik" is
favorable for the returning of the children to their families. About
this Armenpress was informed from chief specialist from Ministry of
Labor and Social affairs of Armenia Karine Khachatryan. "Until the
2013 the orphanage will not work and will continue its functions of
Day Care Center" said Khachatryan.
She mentioned that if in 2010 40 children were returned to their
biological families, then last year that rate had been 42. Such trend
is observed especially in the orphanage of Nor Nork in case of children
under one year old.
The cases of giving children to orphanage are rather different -
social conditions, illness of the child or the parent.
"In case of being absence from the country the parent has the right
to leave the child under state care and after the return the child
can return to the family. There are 1-2 cases when from specialized
orphanages children return to family" noticed the specialist.
Khachatryan reported the orphanage does great work with parents,
talk with them. Children of ten years old and more already heave
their opinions and each child seeks to have family even not biological.

conditions of the family become better parents apply to municipality
which studies the conditions: there must be normal moral and social
conditions. Based on all those facts municipality gives inference
according to which the child can be returned to family. But only the
wish of the parent to return the child is not enough because in case
of absence of correspond inference the child is not returned to family.
In Armenia there are 7 state orphanages, 2 of which are specialized.
760 children live in orphanages, the majority - 510 children are from
specialized orphanages.
