Preferred term

transient children research  

Definition

  • A wide array of children is subsumed under the term transient, and their life circumstances beckon thoughtful consideration of curriculum studies that meet their significant needs. Often suffering from poverty, reflected in their ranks are urban, suburban, and rural children who are homeless; some are part of homeless families and others are street kids who face physical harm, and in some nations, murder.
