How is care arranged for unaccompanied refugee minors at residential care institutions, and what kind of conditions do these arrangements constitute for young persons' well-being and development? Informed by developmental perspectives that consider young people's development through participation across contexts in everyday life and by research into how parents in ‘ordinary’ families organize care, we developed a study based on interviews with 15 unaccompanied refugee minors and their professional caregivers at residential care institutions. The interviews were analysed systematically by exploring how care is arranged between professionals and its implications in the young persons' lives. The results elucidate how responsibility for following up and making sense of central issues in the lives of the minors was allocated to professionals outside the daily care rather than being part of the primary caregivers' contact with the minors. This practice contrasts with what young persons in ‘ordinary families’ in Norway enjoy, where coordination across contexts and keeping an overview of the total care are considered the responsibility of parents. The article focuses on the outsourcing of what we call refugee-related legal issues in the minors' everyday lives, to the legal guardians, which appeared to be a barrier to being understood and supported.

“与您的法定监护人讨论”：为无人陪伴的年轻难民未成年人提供护理的挑战

寄宿机构对无人陪伴的未成年难民如何安排，这些安排对青少年的福祉和发展构成了什么样的条件？考虑到年轻人通过参与日常生活中的不同背景而发展的发展观点，以及通过研究“普通”家庭的父母如何组织照顾，我们开发了一项基于对 15 名无人陪伴的未成年难民及其在寄宿照顾机构的专业照顾者的访谈的研究. 通过探讨专业人员之间如何安排护理及其对年轻人生活的影响，对访谈进行了系统分析。结果阐明了如何将跟进和理解未成年人生活中的核心问题的责任分配给日常护理之外的专业人员，而不是作为主要照顾者与未成年人接触的一部分。这种做法与挪威“普通家庭”中的年轻人所享受的情况形成鲜明对比，在挪威，跨环境协调和全面照顾整个家庭被认为是父母的责任。这篇文章的重点是将我们所谓的未成年人日常生活中与难民有关的法律问题外包给法定监护人，这似乎是被理解和支持的障碍。这种做法与挪威“普通家庭”中的年轻人所享受的情况形成鲜明对比，在挪威，跨环境协调和全面照顾整个家庭被认为是父母的责任。这篇文章的重点是将我们所谓的未成年人日常生活中与难民有关的法律问题外包给法定监护人，这似乎是被理解和支持的障碍。这种做法与挪威“普通家庭”中的年轻人所享受的情况形成鲜明对比，在挪威，跨环境协调和全面照顾整个家庭被认为是父母的责任。这篇文章的重点是将我们所谓的未成年人日常生活中与难民有关的法律问题外包给法定监护人，这似乎是被理解和支持的障碍。
