Shih Chieng-kuei, chairman of the Hwa Hsia Society, says that in a small number of families, both parents are absent, or even if the mother is there, very often her language ability is poor, so that she is unable to deal with the problems children encounter outside the home. In such cases children feel a strong sense of insecurity and have difficulty adapting.
華夏協會理事長施慶桂表示，少部份家庭雙親都不在，即使媽媽在，也常常因為語言能力差，無法替小孩處理外面遇到的問題，孩子的不安全感比較強烈，也有適應不好的情形。
