Personal letter (Silvia Colombo and Andrea Luciani)
私人信件（Silvia Colombo 和 Andrea Luciani）

Introduction
介紹

Our family history dates back to 2011 when we met during the same PhD program we were attending in Italy, our home country. From the very beginning, it was evident that we not only shared common interests — such as the arts, architecture, and traveling — but also the same values and life aspirations. In 2013, we moved in together and established in Andrea's apartment that became our home. Three years later, we got married in a quaint village nestled in the Alps, where Silvia's grandmother was born several decades prior. Shortly thereafter, seeking better career opportunities and new life experiences, we departed Italy and settled in Luleå, a town situated in northern Sweden, where we have resided ever since. While Andrea commenced work at the university as a post-doc, Silvia enrolled in a Swedish language course and continued her work remotely as a research consultant for the University of Manchester.
我們的家族歷史可以追溯到 2011 年，當時我們在祖國義大利參加同一個博士課程時相識。從一開始，很明顯我們不僅有共同的興趣——例如藝術、建築和旅行——而且還有相同的價值觀和生活願望。 2013年，我們搬到了一起，並在安德里亞的公寓裡安頓了下來，這裡成了我們的家。三年後，我們在阿爾卑斯山的一個古色古香的村莊結婚了，西爾維亞的祖母幾十年前出生在那裡。此後不久，為了尋求更好的職業機會和新的生活體驗，我們離開義大利，定居在瑞典北部的呂勒奧小鎮，從那時起我們就一直住在那裡。當安德里亞（Andrea）開始在大學擔任博士後工作時，西爾維亞（Silvia）參加了瑞典語課程，並繼續擔任曼徹斯特大學的研究顧問遠距工作。

In many ways, it has been in Luleå that we have had the opportunity to see ourselves as a family, building our own path both professionally and personally. We purchased our first apartment together, welcomed two cats into our lives, cultivated friendships, and laid the groundwork for our future, contemplating ways to expand our small family. Silvia has frequently pondered the idea of adoption, and Andrea immediately agreed, viewing it as a positive prospect for our family's growth.
從很多方面來說，正是在呂勒奧，我們有機會將自己視為一個家庭，在職業和個人方面都開闢了自己的道路。我們一起購買了第一套公寓，迎來了兩隻貓進入我們的生活，培養了友誼，為我們的未來奠定了基礎，並考慮如何擴大我們的小家庭。西爾維亞經常考慮收養的想法，安德里亞立即同意了，認為這對我們家庭的成長來說是一個積極的前景。

All of this has led us to make this choice and write this letter. In the end, there are many reasons why we desire to adopt a child from Taiwan: firstly, because we hope to provide a child with a home and have a positive impact on him/her. Secondly, because we wish to expand our family, and we cannot have biological children. Lastly, and most importantly, because we want to raise a child and form a bond with him/her regardless of blood relations and genetics.
所有這一切促使我們做出了這個選擇並寫了這封信。最後，我們希望收養一個台灣孩子的原因有很多：第一，我們希望給孩子一個家，對他/她有正面的影響。其次，因為我們想要擴大家庭，我們不能有親生孩子。最後，也是最重要的，因為我們想要撫養一個孩子並與他/她建立聯繫，無論血緣關係和遺傳如何。

Sivia and Andrea's relationship as a couple
西維亞和安德里亞的情侶關係

We, as a couple, have a very balanced relationship due to our different temperaments and approaches to life. Silvia likes to take initiative and plan things and activities, even during our free time, while Andrea is more easy-going and always positive about participating. On the other hand, while Andrea is more patient and genuinely calm, Silvia is more anxious and impatient; these opposites help us when it comes to discussions and arguments. Additionally, the fact that Silvia is more extroverted and Andrea more introverted has helped us to maintain a constant and open dialogue from the very beginning.
作為一對夫婦，由於我們不同的性情和生活方式，我們的關係非常平衡。西爾維亞喜歡採取主動，計劃事情和活動，即使在空閒時間也是如此，而安德里亞則更隨和，總是積極參與。另一方面，安德里亞（Andrea）更加耐心和真正冷靜，而西爾維亞（Silvia）則更加焦慮和不耐煩。這些對立面在討論和爭論時對我們很有幫助。此外，西爾維亞（Silvia）更外向，安德里亞（Andrea）更內向，這一事實幫助我們從一開始就保持持續和開放的對話。

Despite our differences, we do share smaller and bigger visions and values in life. For example, we enjoy the same interests and hobbies, such as travelling and visiting cultural sites, reading, watching movies and TV series, and engaging in free time activities (e.g., Silvia is part of the local Folkets bio association, which shows movies from all over the world).
儘管我們有差異，但我們確實有共同的或大或小的願景和價值觀。例如，我們有相同的興趣和愛好，例如旅行和參觀文化景點、閱讀、觀看電影和電視劇以及參加空閒時間活動（例如，Silvia 是當地 Folkets Bio 協會的成員，該協會播放來自世界各地）。

Most importantly, we are both tolerant, open, and always respectful towards each other. We are interested in understanding other people's points of view and learning more about other cultures and languages — this is also one of the reasons why we decided to move to another country during our adult life.
最重要的是，我們都寬容、開放、始終互相尊重。我們有興趣了解別人的觀點並更多地了解其他文化和語言——這也是我們決定在成年後移居到另一個國家的原因之一。

Work situation
工作狀況

Andrea
安德里亞

We first moved to Luleå at the beginning of 2017 because Andrea secured a position as a postdoc in the research group of Architecture at Luleå University of Technology (Luleå Tekniska Universitet, LTU), where he has been working since then.
我們於 2017 年初首次搬到呂勒奧，因為 Andrea 在呂勒奧理工大學 (Luleå Tekniska Universitet, LTU) 建築研究小組獲得了博士後職位，從那時起他就一直在那裡工作。

Over the years, I, Andrea, have been able to secure funding for my research and attained a permanent position as Senior Lecturer since 2021. Initially, my tasks were mostly related to research activities, such as writing applications for funding, participating in, running, and coordinating research projects. However, with the new position, I have become increasingly involved in teaching activities and managing duties for my department and division.
多年來，我，Andrea，已經能夠為我的研究獲得資助，並自 2021 年起獲得高級講師的永久職位。研究項目。然而，在新的職位上，我越來越多地參與系所和部門的教學活動和管理職責。

l, Andrea, find great satisfaction and fulfilment in my job, surrounded by supportive colleagues and a positive work environment. Teaching, in particular, has become a passion of mine as it allows for lively and continuous cultural exchange with young students.
我，Andrea，在我的工作中找到了極大的滿足感和成就感，周圍都是支持性的同事和積極的工作環境。教學尤其成為我的熱情，因為它可以與年輕學生進行活躍且持續的文化交流。

My work (Andrea's) primarily takes place in the office or in teaching facilities at the university. However, aside from scheduled lectures and meetings, I have the flexibility to organise my daily schedule independently, even choosing to work from home when desired.
我的工作（Andrea 的）主要在辦公室或大學的教學設施中進行。然而，除了預定的講座和會議外，我可以靈活地獨立安排我的日常日程，甚至在需要時選擇在家工作。

Silvia
西爾維亞

When we first moved, Silvia continued her collaboration with the University of Manchester as a research consultant and also worked as a private tutor.
當我們第一次搬家時，西爾維亞繼續與曼徹斯特大學合作，擔任研究顧問，並擔任私人導師。

Meanwhile, during the initial year in Sweden, I, Silvia, focused on studying Swedish and began networking within the cultural field, leveraging my background as an art historian and museum specialist. This led to my first professional opportunities in Sweden, initially at the regional museum and municipal art gallery, and later to a permanent role as a cultural strategist for the municipality of Haparanda, where I commuted from Luleå for two years.
同時，在瑞典的第一年，我，西爾維亞，專注於學習瑞典語，並利用我作為藝術史學家和博物館專家的背景，開始在文化領域建立人脈網絡。這讓我在瑞典獲得了第一個職業機會，最初是在地區博物館和市美術館，後來成為哈帕蘭達市的文化戰略家，我在那裡從呂勒奧往返了兩年。

In 2022, an opportunity arose that would bring me (Silvia) closer to Luleå. Without hesitation, I applied, and shortly after, I secured a permanent position as an art developer at the region (Region Norrbotten). Since January 2023, I have been responsible for overseeing the regional art collection, managing every aspect of it. This includes allocating a yearly budget for art acquisitions, ensuring they are registered and catalogued in a digital database, and organising anticipate the opportunity to provide a loving and supportive environment for a child to thrive in.
2022 年，一個機會讓我（西爾維亞）更接近呂勒奧。我毫不猶豫地申請了，不久之後，我就獲得了該地區（北博滕地區）藝術開發人員的永久職位。自2023年1月以來，我一直負責監督地區藝術收藏，管理其各個方面。這包括為藝術品購買分配年度預算，確保它們在數位資料庫中註冊和編目，並組織預期機會，為孩子的成長提供一個充滿愛和支持的環境。

We would say that openness, tolerance, and the desire to provide love and care to a child in need of a better place and home are the foundation of our decision to adopt.
我們可以說，開放、寬容以及為需要更好的地方和家庭的孩子提供愛和關懷的願望是我們決定收養的基礎。

Approach on parenting and conflict resolution
養育子女和解決衝突的方法

We do not have any children of our own, but we have gained valuable experiences as educators while working with youth and interacting with the children of friends and relatives, including our n ieces.
我們沒有自己的孩子，但作為教育工作者，我們在與青少年一起工作以及與朋友和親戚的孩子（包括我們的侄女）互動時獲得了寶貴的經驗。

Our foremost priority in parenting is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where the child can grow and thrive. We believe in granting children the space and freedom to express their individuality while instilling in them the importance of respect for others and adherence to societal values and rules.
我們育兒的首要任務是提供一個安全和養育的環境，讓孩子成長和茁壯成長。我們相信給予兒童表達個性的空間和自由，同時向他們灌輸尊重他人和遵守社會價值觀和規則的重要性。

Being at the same Italian and Swedish, we aspire to imbue the child with the best aspects of both cultures. We envision offering them the warmth, intimacy, and care characteristic of an Italian family, while also granting them the independence and autonomy that the Swedish system promotes.
身為義大利和瑞典的一員，我們渴望向孩子灌輸兩種文化的最佳面向。我們設想為他們提供義大利家庭特有的溫暖、親密和關懷，同時也給予他們瑞典制度所提倡的獨立和自主。

Moreover, we are committed to ensuring that the child remains connected to their cultural roots. We are actively seeking out Swedish-Taiwanese cultural associations and Taiwanese families or children in our community. Additionally, we have Mandarin-speaking friends who can assist the child in practising their mother tongue.
此外，我們致力於確保兒童與其文化根源保持聯繫。我們正在積極尋找社區中的瑞典-台灣文化協會和台灣家庭或兒童。此外，我們還有會說國語的朋友可以幫助孩子練習母語。

We believe that facing conflicts and overcoming obstacles are integral parts of the growth process. Our approach, both within our relationship and in our interactions with others, emphasises open communication, understanding of the other's reasons and perspective but at the same time standing up for our principles and values.
我們相信，面對衝突和克服障礙是成長過程中不可或缺的一部分。我們的方法，無論是在我們的關係中或與他人的互動中，都強調開放的溝通、理解對方的理由和觀點，但同時堅持我們的原則和價值觀。

In the event of a conflict with the child, our approach would involve fostering an environment where they feel comfortable expressing what disappoints them and why, engaging in dialogue to understand each other's perspectives, and, finally, working together to find mutually agreeable solutions while upholding non-negotiable values and principles.
如果與孩子發生衝突，我們的方法將包括創造一個讓他們能夠輕鬆表達令他們失望的事情及其原因的環境，進行對話以了解彼此的觀點，最後共同努力找到雙方同意的解決方案，同時堅持不可協商的價值和原則。

Family and friends' reaction over the planned adoption
家人和朋友對計劃收養的反應

Everyone we ^lve informed about the adoption has reacted positively, but not everyone has been informed yet. Silvia's high school friends were already aware of her desire to adopt a child, as their placement in various healthcare facilities such as health centres, hospitals, and public dentist offices across the region.
我們通知的每個人都對收養做出了積極反應，但尚未通知每個人。西爾維亞的高中朋友已經知道她想要收養一個孩子，因為他們被安置在該地區的各種醫療機構，如保健中心、醫院和公共牙醫診所。

Although much of my time is spent out-of-office, especially when placing artworks in healthcare facilities, l,Silvia, have the flexibility to manage my schedule and work trips. These trips are often day-trips, allowing me to maintain a full-time workload while accommodating my responsibilities. While my office is based in Luleå, I also have the option to work remotely up to 50% of the time, providing further flexibility in my work arrangements. In my role, I find myself working quite independently most of the time. However, I've also established a collaborative workflow with my colleague who handles framing for artworks. Recently, I've welcomed a new colleague to our team, who's focusing on a specific project: the commission of public art for a new regional hospital.
儘管我的大部分時間都在辦公室外度過，尤其是在將藝術品放置在醫療機構中時，但 l,Silvia 可以靈活地管理我的日程安排和工作旅行。這些旅行通常是一日遊，使我能夠在履行職責的同時保持全職工作量。雖然我的辦公室位於呂勒奧，但我還可以選擇最多 50% 的時間進行遠距工作，這為我的工作安排提供了更大的靈活性。在我的角色中，我發現自己大部分時間都相當獨立地工作。不過，我還與負責藝術品裝框的同事建立了協作工作流程。最近，我歡迎一位新同事加入我們的團隊，他專注於一個特定的專案：為一家新的地區醫院委託公共藝術。

Reasons for adoption
採用理由

The desire to adopt a child has been with us for quite some time, even before we knew that having biological children might not be possible. However, back in Italy, circumstances were not quite conducive for us to seriously consider adoption. We were both without permanent jobs and living in a small apartment in Milan, so the idea was put on hold.
收養孩子的願望已經伴隨我們很長一段時間了，甚至在我們知道生孩子可能是不可能的之前。然而，回到義大利，情況不太有利於我們認真考慮收養。我們都沒有固定的工作，住在米蘭的一間小公寓裡，所以這個想法被擱置了。

When we made the move to Sweden, things began to fall into place. With secure employment, a stable economy, a larger living space, and Swedish citizenship, the idea of adoption became much more tangible.
當我們搬到瑞典時，一切都開始步入正軌。有了穩定的就業、穩定的經濟、更大的生活空間和瑞典公民身份，收養的想法變得更加切實可行。

For us, adoption isn ^lt a fallback plan or an alternative to having biological children. It's about welcoming someone into our lives and enriching it. Our home has always been open to friends and family from near and far, and we thrive on the warmth and energy everyone brings.
對我們來說，收養不是後備計劃，也不是生孩子的替代方案。這是關於歡迎某人進入我們的生活並豐富我們的生活。我們的家始終向遠近的朋友和家人開放，我們依靠每個人帶來的溫暖和能量而蓬勃發展。

Silvia has always been drawn to guiding young people. Whether it's through her past work experiences in schools, leading groups of teenagers on trips abroad, or serving as an educator in various cultural institutions, she has a natural affinity for connecting with youth. Additionally, her experience tutoring her twin cousins, whom she considers as younger brothers, has further deepened her understanding of the joys and challenges of mentorship.
西爾維亞一直熱衷於指導年輕人。無論是過去在學校的工作經驗、帶領青少年團體出國旅行，或是在各種文化機構擔任教育工作者，她對與年輕人的聯繫有著天然的親和力。此外，她輔導她視為弟弟的雙胞胎表兄弟的經歷進一步加深了她對輔導的樂趣和挑戰的理解。

Back in Italy, Andrea has been volunteering since his teenage years for an association for mentally impaired people. During his university studies, he worked part-time as an educator in a residential community for mentally impaired individuals. Upon moving to Sweden, he found fulfilment in his teaching duties for his job, realisingthe positive impact he could have on others' education and growth.
回到義大利，安德里亞從青少年時期就開始為精神障礙協會做志工。在大學學習期間，他在一個智障人士居住社區兼職擔任教育工作者。移居瑞典後，他發現自己的教學職責得到了滿足，並意識到自己可以對其他人的教育和成長產生積極影響。

We have always cherished the idea of a bustling household filled with laughter and shared experiences. The thought of an empty house has never quite appealed to us, and we eagerly minor heart defects (in some cases even if requiring minor surgery), with chronic diseases such as diabetes, mild kidney malfunctions, thalassemia or haemophilia. We think we could be open to minor behavioural or development issues, such as a mild developmental delay, mild learning disability (e.g. ADHD), mild hyperactivity or delayed speech or stuttering. Finally, we are also open to children with problematic family backgrounds, such as family history of criminality or alcohol and drug use.
我們一直珍惜一個充滿歡笑和共同經歷的熱鬧家庭的想法。空房子的想法從來都不太吸引我們，我們熱切地渴望患有輕微的心臟缺陷（在某些情況下甚至需要進行小手術），以及患有糖尿病、輕度腎功能不全、地中海貧血或血友病等慢性疾病。我們認為我們可以對輕微的行為或發展問題持開放態度，例如輕度發展遲緩、輕度學習障礙（例如過動症）、輕度過動症或言語遲緩或口吃。最後，我們也對有問題家庭背景的兒童開放，例如家族犯罪史或酗酒和吸毒。

Support from the surroundings/society
周圍環境/社會的支持

Luleå, in Northern Sweden, is a quaint town furnished with all essential social and public services we may need. Our residence is conveniently close to the centre of Luleå, merely a 5—10minute drive or a 20—25-minute walk, granting us easy access to a multitude of services. The city centre hosts various public offices, including the Tax office and Public and Private insurance office. Additionally, the health care centre we rely on is centrally located.
呂勒奧位於瑞典北部，是一個古色古香的小鎮，配備了我們可能需要的所有基本社會和公共服務。我們的住所位置便利，靠近呂勒奧市中心，僅需 5 - 10 分鐘車程或 20 - 25 分鐘步行路程，讓我們可以輕鬆獲得多種服務。市中心設有各種公共辦公室，包括稅務局以及公共和私人保險局。此外，我們依賴的醫療保健中心位於市中心。

Silvia's workplace is housed within the same building as a pharmacy and a local health care centre, which includes a BVC (child health centre). Furthermore, the region's primary hospital is a brief 15—20-minute drive from our home. Silvia possesses comprehensive knowledge of the hospital departments and its operations, as she frequents the premises for work-related matters (Sunderby hospital being one of the primary sites from which Silvia borrows artworks).
Silvia 的工作場所與藥房和當地醫療保健中心（其中包括 BVC（兒童健康中心））位於同一棟建築物內。此外，該地區的初級醫院距離我們家僅 15 至 20 分鐘車程。西爾維亞對醫院各部門及其運作有著全面的了解，因為她經常去醫院處理與工作相關的事務（桑德比醫院是西爾維亞借用藝術品的主要場所之一）。

The social services of the municipality also reassured us that we can reach out to them anytime we require assistance or support.
市政府的社會服務也讓我們放心，我們可以在需要幫助或支持時隨時聯繫他們。

Life in Sweden
瑞典生活

As mentioned above, Luleå is a small town situated in the northernmost part of Sweden, with approximately 78,000 inhabitants within the whole municipality. Being a small town, it is considered quite safe for families wishing to raise children here. Additionally, the welfare system is highly family-friendly, providing children with free dental care until the age of 23, free education from kindergarten to university, and regular medical check-ups. The state supports families by providing a small amount of money for each minor child.
如上所述，呂勒奧是位於瑞典最北部的一個小鎮，全市約有 78,000 名居民。作為一個小鎮，對於希望在這裡撫養孩子的家庭來說，這裡被認為是相當安全的。此外，福利制度高度家庭友好，為兒童提供23歲之前的免費牙科護理、從幼兒園到大學的免費教育以及定期體檢。國家透過為每個未成年子女提供少量資金來支持家庭。

In general, life in Sweden is tranquil and enjoyable. People (and especially kids) are often engaged in sports. Here in the north, hockey and basketball are the most popular ones, but there is the possibility to practise other sorts of disciplines as well. The local public library and the art gallery/ museum organise various activities (guided tours, workshops...) for kids and teenagers both during the week and weekends.
總的來說，瑞典的生活是平靜而愉快的。人們（尤其是孩子）經常參與運動。在北方，曲棍球和籃球是最受歡迎的運動，但也有可能練習其他類型的運動。當地公共圖書館和藝術畫廊/博物館在工作日和週末為兒童和青少年組織各種活動（導遊、研討會...）。

The seasons here are quite unique since there are snowy and quite dark winters, followed by bright and wonderful summers. The lifestyle adapts to that: so life during winter is mainly
這裡的季節非常獨特，有下雪且黑暗的冬季，隨後是明亮而美妙的夏季。生活方式與之相適應：所以冬天的生活主要是

we had discussed it on several occasions. Two years ago, during a weekend getaway, I updated them on the adoption process we had just begun, and they were genuinely happy about it. Andrea has separately informed his three closest friends, Eduardo, Stefania, and Francesca, about our decision to adopt and the beginning of the process. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell them in person, but they were all equally moved by the news and supportive of us.
我們曾多次討論過這個問題。兩年前，在一個週末度假期間，我向他們介紹了我們剛開始的收養流程，他們對此感到非常高興。安德里亞（Andrea）已分別向他的三位最親密的朋友愛德華多（Eduardo）、斯特凡尼亞（Stefania）和弗朗西斯卡（Francesca）通報了我們收養的決定以及該過程的開始。不幸的是，我無法親自告訴他們，但他們都同樣被這個消息感動並支持我們。

Our friends here in Sweden have been incredibly supportive and readily offered their assistance when we asked them to join us on this journey, as our closest network in Sweden.
當我們邀請我們在瑞典的朋友作為我們在瑞典最親密的網絡加入我們的旅程時，他們給予了我們極大的支持並樂意提供幫助。

However, our families have yet to be informed. Only Silvia's cousins and aunt are aware of all the challenges and joys we have been experiencing throughout this demanding and lengthy process. The rest of our families will be informed when we visit Italy next summer. We chose to wait until the decision from the municipality's social services was clear, and now that we've received it and are preparing to submit our application to Taiwan, the time has come.
然而，我們的家人尚未得到通知。只有西爾維亞的表兄弟姐妹和阿姨知道我們在這個艱鉅而漫長的過程中所經歷的所有挑戰和喜悅。當我們明年夏天訪問義大利時，我們的其他家人將會收到通知。我們選擇等待市政府社會服務部門的決定，現在我們已經收到並準備向台灣提交申請，時機已經成熟。

Since this news requires our presence in person, we decided to wait until next summer. We didn't want to raise false hopes or expectations by sharing news of the adoption too early in the process. Nevertheless, we are confident that they will react positively and warmly to the news.
由於這個消息需要我們親自到場，所以我們決定等到明年夏天。我們不想過早分享採用的訊息，從而引發錯誤的希望或期望。儘管如此，我們相信他們會對這一消息做出積極和熱烈的反應。

Care of a child with special needs
照顧有特殊需求的兒童

We are fully prepared to provide our future child with all the necessary support to address any health issues and overcome potential challenges in their development to the best of our abilities. We understand that such issues may arise later in the child's growth, and we acknowledge that we cannot predict the exact needs they may have.
我們已做好充分準備，為我們未來的孩子提供一切必要的支持，以解決任何健康問題，並盡我們最大的能力克服他們發展中的潛在挑戰。我們了解此類問題可能會在孩子的成長後期出現，我們承認我們無法預測他們可能有的確切需求。

As mentioned earlier, Andrea has significant experience in volunteering and caring for individuals with special needs, particularly those with mental and to some extent physical impairments. This has given him a deep understanding of the challenges associated with such conditions and the level of support required from both family and society.
如前所述，安德里亞在志願服務和照顧有特殊需求的個人，特別是那些有精神障礙和一定程度的身體障礙的人方面擁有豐富的經驗。這使他深刻地理解了與這種情況相關的挑戰以及需要家庭和社會的支持程度。

We are aware that Sweden offers an extensive support system for children with special needs, but as newcomers to the country, we have not yet established a large support network. After careful consideration and discussion, we have concluded that we may not have the capacity to care for children with significant disabilities or complex medical needs. One of the primary concerns is the lack of siblings or other family members in close proximity who could provide ongoing support for the child once we are no longer able to do so.
我們知道瑞典為有特殊需求的兒童提供了廣泛的支持系統，但作為該國的新移民，我們尚未建立龐大的支持網絡。經過仔細考慮和討論，我們得出的結論是，我們可能沒有能力照顧患有嚴重殘疾或複雜醫療需求的兒童。主要問題之一是，一旦我們無法為孩子提供持續的支持，就缺乏兄弟姐妹或其他親密的家庭成員。

However, we remain open to welcoming a child with minor medical conditions that are manageable with medication or may be resolved over time, potentially through surgery or other interventions.
然而，我們仍然歡迎患有輕微疾病的孩子，這些疾病可以透過藥物控制，或隨著時間的推移，可能透過手術或其他幹預措施來解決。

For instance, we would be open to children with premature birth or low birth weight, with indoor, at home or in public spaces (libraries, movie theatres...); the outdoor life is mostly related with sports and contact with nature: people are often out walking on the ice road on the sea, or skating or sledging.
例如，我們將對早產或低出生體重的兒童開放，在室內、家裡或公共場所（圖書館、電影院…）；戶外生活大多與運動和與大自然的接觸有關：人們經常在海上的冰路上行走，或滑冰或乘坐雪橇。

During summer a lot more people are seen outdoors, on the streets, by sand or rocky beaches. From the city centre it is also possible to visit the archipelago by taking the ferry.
夏季，戶外、街道上、沙灘或岩石海灘上會看到更多的人。從市中心還可以搭乘渡輪遊覽群島。

How Sweden welcomes children from different sodeties
瑞典如何歡迎來自不同社會的孩子

Sweden, whether in the north or the south, fosters a multicultural society with people from all corners of the globe. Even in a smaller city like Luleå, this is evident. The presence of institutions like the university and a generous immigration policy has contributed to this cultural diversity, allowing us to encounter various languages and traditions. As immigrants ourselves, we've undergone the integration process and experienced firsthand the welcoming nature of Swedish society.
瑞典，無論是北方或南方，都與來自全球各個角落的人們一起培養了一個多元文化的社會。即使在像呂勒奧這樣的小城市，這一點也很明顯。大學等機構的存在和慷慨的移民政策促進了這種文化多樣性，使我們能夠接觸到各種語言和傳統。身為移民，我們經歷了融入社會的過程，並親身體驗了瑞典社會的熱情好客。

Our circle of friends here reflects this aspect, hailing from different countries and speaking multiple languages. While Silvia primarily interacts with local colleagues in her work for a public organisation, Andrea collaborates with an international team comprising people from Hong Kong, China, South America, and various European countries.
我們這裡的朋友圈反映了這一點，他們來自不同的國家，講多種語言。 Silvia 在公共組織的工作中主要與當地同事互動，而 Andrea 則與一個由來自香港、中國、南美和歐洲各國的人員組成的國際團隊合作。

Overall, transitioning to life in Sweden as foreigners doesn't pose significant challenges. The society is open, tolerant, and welcoming, albeit in a more reserved manner compared to some southern countries.
整體而言，以外國人身分過渡到瑞典的生活並不構成重大挑戰。這個社會開放、寬容、熱情，儘管與一些南方國家相比顯得更加保守。

Here in Sweden, the child would have the opportunity to be in contact with Asian culture, particularly Taiwanese culture. As mentioned earlier, Andrea has colleagues who speak
在瑞典，孩子將有機會接觸亞洲文化，尤其是台灣文化。如前所述，Andrea 有同事發言

Mandarin, providing a gateway to the language. Additionally, we've been in touch with a family through the association Barnen Framför Allt who has adopted a child from Taiwan, offering valuable insights and connections.
普通話，提供通往語言的門戶。此外，我們還透過 Barnen Framför Allt 協會與一個收養了一名來自台灣的孩子的家庭取得了聯繫，提供了寶貴的見解和聯繫。

Swedish schools also offer the option for students to study their mother tongue, which we consider to be of significant importance. We believe it's crucial for the child to have the opportunity to explore a new culture while maintaining a connection to their own language and heritage. We ^t re committed to ensuring the child has access to resources that promote and celebrate Taiwanese culture within Sweden and the North. We would actively seek out associations and organisations dedicated to fostering cultural understanding and appreciation.
瑞典學校也為學生提供學習母語的選擇，我們認為這非常重要。我們認為，讓孩子有機會探索新文化，同時保持與自己的語言和傳統的聯繫至關重要。我們^致力於確保孩子能夠獲得在瑞典和北方推廣和慶祝台灣文化的資源。我們將積極尋找致力於促進文化理解和欣賞的協會和組織。

The reason why we have chosen to adopt from Taiwan
我們選擇台灣領養的原因

For us, the decision to adopt a child isn't tied to a specific country or culture. Initially, we were drawn to Barnen Framför Allt as the right organisation for us. As we delved deeper into their resources, including their website and the stories shared by others in the association, we began to feel that Taiwan was the ideal country for us to adopt from.
對我們來說，收養孩子的決定與特定的國家或文化無關。最初，我們被 Barnen Framför Allt 所吸引，認為它是適合我們的組織。當我們深入研究他們的資源，包括他們的網站和協會其他人分享的故事時，我們開始覺得台灣是我們收養的理想國家。

Several factors influenced our decision. Firstly, the requirements outlined by the adoption process aligned well with our own circumstances, including considerations such as age differences between the child and the parents, marital status, and educational background. Additionally, the extended court process in Taiwan provides us with ample time to plan our trip to the country and prepare for the adoption.
有幾個因素影響了我們的決定。首先，收養過程中提出的要求與我們自身的情況非常吻合，包括孩子與父母的年齡差異、婚姻狀況、教育背景等考量。此外，台灣延長的法庭程序為我們提供了充足的時間來規劃前往該國的行程並為收養做準備。

Furthermore, we ^l re eager to learn as much as possible about the child's background, family history, and any potential health considerations. This information will not only help us better understand the child's needs but also ensure that we can provide the necessary support and care as they join our family.
此外，我們^渴望盡可能多地了解孩子的背景、家族史​​以及任何潛在的健康問題。這些資訊不僅可以幫助我們更好地了解孩子的需求，還可以確保我們能夠在他們加入我們的家庭時提供必要的支持和照顧。

The neighbourhood we live in
我們住的社區

As previously mentioned, we reside in the family-friendly neighbourhood of Klintbacken, situated nearby the centre of Luleå. Our community comprises clusters of four-apartment houses, along a picturesque lake visible from our balcony. Our apartment (72 square metres) boasts a kitchen, a living room, a bathroom and two bedrooms, filled with love, cats, art and lots of books. We decorated the apartment ourselves, choosing the colours, the details and the furniture we like. Since we are interested in second hand and sustainability, we bought some of the pieces of our furniture at local auctions or markets. Friends and family visiting the apartment say it is welcoming and cosy, and we actually agree with them. From Spring to Autumn, the glazed balcony becomes an extra room, where we often spend breakfast or dinner time, according to the temperature and weather.
如前所述，我們居住在適合家庭居住的 Klintbacken 社區，位於呂勒奧中心附近。我們的社區由四套公寓組成，沿著風景如畫的湖泊，從我們的陽台上就可以看到。我們的公寓（72 平方公尺）設有廚房、客廳、浴室和兩間臥室，裡面充滿了愛、貓、藝術品和大量書籍。我們自己裝飾公寓，選擇我們喜歡的顏色、細節和家具。由於我們對二手和永續發展感興趣，我們在當地拍賣或市場上購買了一些家具。來訪公寓的朋友和家人都說這裡熱情又舒適，我們其實也同意他們的觀點。從春天到秋天，玻璃陽台變成了一個額外的房間，根據溫度和天氣，我們經常在那裡度過早餐或晚餐時間。

Klintbacken - the neighbourhood - is populated by a mix of elderly residents and young families, with more and more families joining the community. Some of our friends, acquaintances, and colleagues are also residing here. The central courtyards of the housing complex feature playgrounds where children can play together, particularly during the spring and summer months. In the winter, the children usually play in the snow.
Klintbacken 社區居住著老年居民和年輕家庭，越來越多的家庭加入社區。我們的一些朋友、熟人和同事也住在這裡。住宅區的中央庭院設有遊樂場，孩子們可以一起玩耍，尤其是在春季和夏季。冬天，孩子通常在雪地裡玩耍。

Conveniently, our neighbourhood is in close proximity to two kindergartens and two schools. Additionally, there's a kindergarten at Andrea!s workplace, just a 10-minute drive away, which often enrols children of the employees.
我們的社區非常方便，靠近兩所幼兒園和兩所學校。此外，Andrea！

Raising the child, child care and schooling options
撫養孩子、兒童保育和學校教育選擇

Thanks to a family-friendly society, in Sweden it is possible to spend a considerable amount of time with family and friends outside the working hours. As soon as the kid arrives in Sweden, we plan to spend as much time as possible with them, having both the possibility to take parental leave and holiday. This in order for us to bond and know each other better. We will take care of the child by trying to understand from the very beginning their interests, passions and needs
由於一個對家庭友善的社會，在瑞典，人們可以在工作時間之外花大量時間與家人和朋友在一起。孩子一抵達瑞典，我們就計劃盡可能多地陪伴他們，並有機會享受育嬰假和假期。這是為了讓我們更好地聯繫和了解彼此。我們將從一開始就努力了解孩子的興趣、熱情和需求來照顧他們

and by trying to support them. Patience, openness and mutual understanding are principles we firmly believe in.
並努力支持他們。耐心、開放和相互理解是我們堅信的原則。

Once we will be back to work, during our working hours the child would be enrolled either at a kindergarten or a school, depending on their age. Typically, preschools and schools open early in the morning, around 6 am, allowing parents to commence and conclude their workday promptly and allocate quality time to their family. For days when our work schedules extend into the evening, public institutions offer afterschool options to accommodate working parents. We live in close proximity to kindergartens and schools, so there would be no problem finding a suitable one that is also located nearby.
一旦我們重返工作崗位，在工作時間內，孩子將根據年齡進入幼兒園或學校。通常，幼兒園和學校會在早上 6 點左右開放，讓家長能夠及時開始和結束一天的工作，並為家人分配優質時間。當我們的工作時間延長到晚上時，公立機構會提供放學後的選擇，以適應在職父母的需求。我們住的地方離幼兒園和學校很近，所以在附近找到一所合適的幼兒園和學校是沒有問題的。

The educational standards in Sweden are generally high, with teaching methods being quite uniform across institutions. As mentioned earlier, we would select a kindergarten or school located conveniently near our home or opt for the kindergarten within Andrea ^l s university campus.
瑞典的教育程度普遍較高，各機構的教學方法相當統一。如同前面所提到的，我們會選擇離家較近、交通方便的幼兒園或學校，或選擇Andrea 大學校園內的^幼兒園。

Sweden boasts family-friendly policies, offering extended parental leaves and permitting parents to stay home from work when the child is unwell. Additionally, as employees, we enjoy a generous allocation of holidays, totalling five weeks per year, along with compensation for any extra hours worked or transfers made. These holidays could be utilised during school breaks, including spring and autumn breaks, in addition to the traditional summer and Christmas holidays.
瑞典擁有對家庭友善的政策，提供延長的育嬰假，並允許父母在孩子身體不適時留在家裡不工作。此外，作為員工，我們享有慷慨的假期分配，每年總計五週，以及任何加班或調動的補償。除了傳統的暑假和聖誕節假期外，這些假期還可以在學校放假期間利用，包括春假和秋假。

About the child's background
關於孩子的背景

It is paramount for us to ensure that the child remains connected to their culture and roots. We are committed to nurturing the child's identity as a fruit of diverse cultures, much like us. As previously stated, we would prioritise maintaining regular contact with their mother tongue and fostering an understanding and knowledge of Taiwanese culture. Furthermore, when the time is appropriate, we would provide the child with information about their biological family. If feasible, we would certainly consider a trip to Taiwan as a meaningful option to strengthen their connection to their heritage.
對我們來說，確保孩子與其文化和根源保持聯繫至關重要。我們致力於培養孩子的認同，讓他們成為多元文化的果實，就像我們一樣。如前所述，我們會優先考慮與他們的母語保持定期接觸，並促進對台灣文化的理解和了解。此外，在適當的時候，我們也會提供孩子有關其親生家庭的資訊。如果可行的話，我們當然會考慮去台灣旅行作為一個有意義的選擇，以加強他們與文化遺產的聯繫。

In the unfortunate event that we both pass away, we have made arrangements for our dear friends Cristina Ramos Caceres and Youen Pericault to take care of our child. Cristina and Youen, along with their son Alvar, have been a part of our lives since we first moved to Luleå. They are a wonderful couple, both originally from different countries like us—Cristina from Spain and Youen from France, living in Luleå for 8-9 years now.
如果我們不幸去世，我們已安排好朋友克里斯蒂娜·拉莫斯·卡塞雷斯和尤恩·佩里科來照顧我們的孩子。自從我們第一次搬到呂勒奧以來，克里斯蒂娜和尤恩以及他們的兒子阿爾瓦就已經成為我們生活的一部分。他們是一對很棒的夫婦，和我們一樣來自不同的國家——克里斯蒂娜來自西班牙，尤恩來自法國，現在在呂勒奧生活了 8-9 年。

Cristina is an architect and was also Andrea ^l s colleague during her PhD. She is warm, outgoing, and incredibly generous, always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. Youen, on the other hand, is a steady and reliable presence, with a love for outdoor adventures. He works as a civil engineer for the Luleå municipality. Their son Alvar is a delightful and sociable child, and we have grown very fond of him over the years.
Cristina 是一名建築師，也是 Andrea在攻讀博士學位期間的同事^。她熱情、外向、非常慷慨，隨時準備向有需要的人伸出援手。另一方面，Youen 是一個穩定可靠的人，熱愛戶外探險。他在呂勒奧市擔任土木工程師。他們的兒子阿爾瓦是個令人愉快且善於交際的孩子，多年來我們非常喜歡他。

We have a strong bond with Cristina and Youen, built on mutual support and friendship. We have helped each other through various challenges, whether it's assisting with home renovations or lending a hand with car troubles. We regularly spend time together and often babysit Alvar when needed.
我們與 Cristina 和 Youen 有著牢固的聯繫，建立在相互支持和友誼的基礎上。我們互相幫助克服了各種挑戰，無論是協助房屋裝修還是幫助解決汽車故障。我們經常在一起度過時光，並經常在需要時照顧阿爾瓦。

Although we no longer live in the same neighbourhood, Cristina and Youen reside in a beautiful villa close to nature, which they have lovingly renovated over time.
雖然我們不再住在同一個街區，但克里斯蒂娜和尤恩住在一棟靠近大自然的美麗別墅裡，隨著時間的推移，他們精心翻修了這座別墅。

Their address is Revelsudden 173, 97596, Luleå. We have full confidence in their ability to provide a loving and nurturing environment for our child, should the need arise.
他們的地址是 Revelsudden 173, 97596, Luleå。我們完全相信他們有能力在需要時為我們的孩子提供一個充滿愛和培養的環境。

In conclusion, we wish to be parents and take care of a kid that we would love and cherish. We are wholeheartedly open to welcoming a child into our home, up to 6 years of age.
總之，我們希望成為父母並照顧一個我們所愛和珍惜的孩子。我們竭誠歡迎 6 歲以下的孩子來到我們家。

Background
背景

Andrea's account
安德里亞的帳戶

Andrea was born and grew up in Milan, he has an older brother who is 4 years older than him. They have always lived in Milan, both of his parents are doctors. His mother is originally from Piemonte, which is in northern Italy and his father is from Marche, which is in central Italy. They then moved to Florence and finally to Milan to work in the hospital there. Andrea says that he had a normal, secure childhood and a good family. His parents were good at giving them everything they needed, despite not having very much money. When Andrea and his brother were older, their parents had better positions as doctors, which provided them with more opportunities. They both worked so that they could give Andrea and his brother the opportunity to choose what they wanted to do with their lives. They gave them everything they could, but at the same time they were clear that they wanted Andrea and his brother to be responsible and not waste the opportunities they had.
安德里亞在米蘭出生長大，他有一個比他大4歲的哥哥。他們一直住在米蘭，他的父母都是醫生。他的母親來自義大利北部的皮埃蒙特，父親來自義大利中部的馬爾凱。然後他們搬到了佛羅倫薩，最後搬到了米蘭，在那裡的醫院工作。安德里亞說，他有一個正常、安全的童年和一個美好的家庭。儘管錢不多，但他的父母很樂意為他們提供所需的一切。當安德里亞和他的兄弟長大後，他們的父母擔任了更好的醫生，這為他們提供了更多的機會。他們都努力工作，以便讓安德里亞和他的兄弟有機會選擇他們一生中想要做什麼。他們給了他們所能提供的一切，但同時他們也清楚地希望安德里亞和他的兄弟負起責任，不要浪費他們所擁有的機會。

Andrea's father was born in 1949 and is described by Andrea as a person who does not show many feelings. Andrea can see now that he does so to a greater extent, when he became a grandfather he began to show more emotion and he is much gentler with his grandchildren. Andrea believes he is a person who wants to show his love through actions and not in words. Andrea believes he is a little like his father in this way. His father has always been very direct and at work among his colleagues he is known for being very straightforward. He has always been a fair person and he would not judge someone or change his thoughts on them on the basis of their profession or position in life. He has not been so open with his feelings for Andrea, but Andrea has always felt loved. His father is now retired.
安德里亞的父親出生於1949年，安德里亞形容他是一個不會表現出太多感情的人。安德里亞現在可以看到，他在更大程度上這樣做了，當他成為祖父時，他開始表現出更多的情感，對孫子們也更加溫和。安德里亞相信他是一個想透過行動而不是言語來表達愛的人。安德里亞認為他在這方面有點像他的父親。他的父親一向很直接，在工作上他也是以直率著稱的。他一直是一個公平的人，他不會根據某人的職業或生活地位來評判某人或改變對他們的看法。他並沒有公開表達自己對安德里亞的感情，但安德里亞始終感受到被愛。他的父親現已退休。

Andrea's mother was born in 1948 and she is very loving and cares about him a lot. His mother is a sensitive person, and if she was worried about Andrea and his brother she showed it, for instance, when he was a teenager and if they went out at night she slept on the sofa to see when they came home. His mother has worked as a paediatrician, she has a lot of empathy, which helped her a lot in her work. She is retired now. Andrea's parents are still married.
安德里亞的母親出生於1948年，她非常疼愛並關心他。他的母親是一個敏感的人，如果她擔心安德里亞和他的兄弟，她就會表現出來，例如，當他十幾歲的時候，如果他們晚上出去，她就會睡在沙發上，看看他們什麼時候回家。他的母親是一名兒科醫生，很有同理心，這對她的工作幫助很大。她現在已經退休了。安德里亞的父母仍然結婚。

serious conflict. When they were children, they spent lots of time together. Andrea and his brother used to spend long summers together with their paternal grandparents who lived one and a half hours from Milan and where they played together all day. Today the brothers have contact mostly through Messenger and chats and sometimes Andrea and Silvia have Skype calls with his brother's whole family. They have a good relationship, perhaps not as close as they could be but it is fine. For Andrea it is the same with his brother as with many of his friends, even if he doesn't speak to them for a few weeks he knows which people are there for him.
嚴重衝突。當他們還是孩子的時候，他們花了很多時間在一起。安德里亞和他的兄弟過去常常與祖父母一起度過漫長的夏天，他們的祖父母住在距離米蘭一個半小時​​車程的地方，他們整天都在一起玩耍。如今，兄弟倆主要透過 Messenger 和聊天進行聯繫，有時 Andrea 和 Silvia 會透過 Skype 與兄弟的全家人通話。他們的關係很好，也許沒有那麼親密，但也很好。對安德里亞來說，對待他的兄弟和他的許多朋友都是一樣的，即使他幾個星期沒有和他們說話，他也知道哪些人在他身邊。

Silvia's account

Silvia says she had a very happy childhood. She is an only child and grew up with her mother and father. Silvia's maternal grandfather lived in an apartment in the same detached house. Silvia spent a lot of time with her maternal grandparents when her parents were working, she therefore saw her maternal grandmother as a second mother. Her maternal grandmother lived in Milan, but was born on the border with France, they used to travel every summer to the village in the Alps. The only thing Silvia remembers was problematic in her childhood was that her mother was always very anxious. She used to panic if anything happened.
西爾維亞說她有一個非常幸福的童年。她是獨生女，和父母一起長大。西爾維亞的外祖父住在同一棟獨立住宅的一間公寓裡。當父母工作時，Silvia 花了很多時間陪伴外祖父母，因此她將外祖母視為第二個母親。她的外祖母住在米蘭，但出生在法國邊境，他們每年夏天都會去阿爾卑斯山的村莊旅行。西爾維亞記得童年時唯一有問題的是她的母親總是非常焦慮。以前，如果有事情發生，她就會驚慌失措。

Silvia's father was born in 1951. He is now retired and previously he worked at FIAT. When Silvia was a teenager, he worked for two years in Rome, he commuted on a weekly basis then, but otherwise has always worked close to their home. Silvia describes her father as very serious, he always says that she doesn't dress properly, she doesn't dress like an adult. He is very calm and has been a huge support to them prior to their move to Sweden. Her father has taught her to follow her dreams.
Silvia 的父親出生於 1951 年。當西爾維亞十幾歲的時候，他在羅馬工作了兩年，當時他每週都通勤，但除此之外一直在他們家附近工作。 Silvia形容她的父親非常嚴肅，他總是說她穿得不合時宜，她穿得不像成年人。他非常冷靜，在他們搬到瑞典之前給了他們巨大的支持。她的父親教導她追尋自己的夢想。

Silvia's mother was born in 1951, and she is also retired now. Silvia's mother and father met at work, her mother was secretary at the same company where her father worked. She also worked a little in the municipality as a civil servant in administration. She then had the opportunity to retire early and she retired when she was around 50. Silvia describes her mother as a lovely person who is very sensitive and often needs emotional support. That someone slightly stronger is beside her. She is very kind but very anxious, a typical Italian mother according to Silvia. Her parents had a good balance when she was growing up. Silvia told her father about her decisions first and then had his support to tell her mother.
Silvia的母親出生於1951年，現在也已經退休了。西爾維亞的父母是在工作中認識的，她的母親是父親工作的同一家公司的秘書。她也曾在市政府擔任過一些行政公務員。後來她有機會提前退休，大約50歲就退休了。她的身邊，有一個實力稍強的人。她很善良，但也很焦慮，據西爾維亞說，她是典型的義大利母親。在她的成長過程中，她的父母關係很好。西爾維亞首先告訴了父親她的決定，然後得到了父親的支持告訴了她的母親。

Silvia had a good relationship with her maternal grandparents and was close to them. Her maternal grandfather passed away when she was only 11 years old, her grandmother was still with them until 2013. Silvia also has a close relationship with her aunt, her mother's sister, who lives close to Silvia's parents. Her aunt has two children who are Silvia's cousins and they were best men at her wedding to Andrea.

Andrea thinks that his home town of Milan, which is a large city, has given him many opportunities. He was able to have many activities as a teenager, there was a lot of culture and he met many different people. He has had friends from different backgrounds. He had the opportunity for an education at a top university and to work in the same town he grew up in. He thinks today that it would have been good for him to move around more, and he has now done this with the move to Sweden. For a period of time during his PhD studies he lived and worked for 6 months in Visby on the island of Gotland in Sweden, 2 months before and 4 months after the summer. This trip enabled him to understand the importance of not staying in the same place for all of one's life. A few years' later, both he and Silvia decided that it would be good to test seeing somewhere other than Italy. They were both a little tired of Italy and eager to experience something new. Andrea has always enjoyed travelling, it something he has enjoyed since he was a child. Together with his parents, he trav Ileuå UKTOR⁴⁹ lot as a child, including outside of Italy.
安德里亞認為他的家鄉米蘭是一個大城市，給了他很多機會。十幾歲的時候他就能夠參加很多活動，接觸到很多文化，認識了很多不同的人。他有來自不同背景的朋友。他有機會在一所頂尖大學接受教育，並在他長大的同一個城鎮工作。在攻讀博士學位期間，他在瑞典哥特蘭島的維斯比生活和工作了 6 個月，暑假前 2 個月和暑假後 4 個月。這趟旅行讓他明白了一生不能待在同一個地方的重要性。幾年後，他和西爾維亞都決定最好去義大利以外的地方看看。他們都對義大利有點厭倦了，渴望體驗一些新的東西。安德里亞一直喜歡旅行，這是他從小就喜歡的事。小時候，他與父母一起走過 Ileuå U KTO R ⁴⁹地段，包括義大利以外的地方。

Andrea's parents grew up in small towns in different parts of Italy, both families were fairly religious, especially her father's family. They studied through scholarships at a Catholic university, where one needs a recommendation from the priest to get it, so when they grew up they spent a lot of time at church and were active in the church. However, in Rome in the 1960s, things changed, both of this parents were active in the student movements and demonstrations, They have both always been politically interested and they supported him to always be active in his social life, to work and to play an active role in society. Andrea began working as a volunteer when he was 15-16 year old with children who had physical and intellectual disabilities. It was originally his mother's suggestion that he should start doing this, but it was also important to him and he continued to be involved and took increasing responsibility in this organisation until he was 25. He made friends there and is still in contact with them.
安德里亞的父母在義大利不同地區的小鎮長大，兩個家庭都相當虔誠，尤其是她父親的家庭。他們透過獎學金在一所天主教大學學習，需要神父的推薦才能獲得，所以長大後他們在教會待了很多時間，並活躍在教會裡。然而，在1960年代的羅馬，情況發生了變化，這對父母都積極參與學生運動和示威，他們一直對政治感興趣，支持他始終積極參與社交生活，工作和玩耍在社會中發揮積極作用。安德里亞 (Andrea) 15 至 16 歲時開始擔任志願者，幫助患有身體和智力障礙的兒童。最初是他母親建議他開始這樣做，但這對他來說也很重要，他繼續參與這個組織並承擔越來越多的責任，直到他25 歲。 他在那裡結識了朋友，並且仍然與他們保持聯繫。

Andrea says that his parents have a good relationship, but like all couples they have conflicts sometimes. His father can complain a little more or nag a little, while his mother is more patient and deals with the conflicts. Andrea has never seen them fight over important decisions on the family or their life. They have always supported one another and taken joint decisions. Andrea feels that on all of the major decisions, such as buying a house, moving to a large apartment, and so on, they have always agreed. They are equal, although his father may appear to be the one who makes decisions, it is ultimately his mother who has the organisational skills. He says that she is the glue that holds the family together. It is his mother who keeps in touch with everyone, she rings Andrea and his brother almost every day to hear how they are. Telephone conversations with his father last around 30 seconds, while those with his mother are long conversations where she describes what they have done, and so on.
安德里亞說，他的父母關係很好，但像所有夫妻一樣，他們有時也會發生衝突。父親可以多抱怨一點，或嘮叨一點，而母親則更有耐心，處理矛盾。安德里亞從未見過他們為家庭或生活的重要決定而爭吵。他們始終相互支持並共同做出決定。安德里亞覺得，在所有重大決定上，例如買房子、搬到大公寓等等，他們總是意見一致。他們是平等的，雖然他的父親可能看起來是做決定的人，但最終具有組織能力的是他的母親。他說她是維繫家庭的黏合劑。他的母親與每個人保持聯繫，她幾乎每天都給安德里亞和他的兄弟打電話，以了解他們的近況。與他父親的電話交談持續約 30 秒，而與他母親的電話交談則很長，她會描述他們做了什麼，等等。

Andrea had closest contact with his mother both as a child and a teenager. He turned to his mother first, but could also go to his father. He felt it was easier to talk to his mother if he was upset or worried about something. When he grew up, he began to talk more with his father. It could also be the case that both of them wanted to have a discussion with him. If he had a heated discussion with one parent, the other would then come and speak calmly to him and resolve the conflict.
安德里亞在童年和青少年時期都與母親有最密切的接觸。他首先轉向他的母親，但也可以轉向他的父親。他覺得如果他感到不安或擔心某件事，與母親交談會更容易。長大後，他開始與父親多交談。也有可能，兩人都想跟他商量一下。如果他和一位家長發生激烈的爭論，另一位家長就會過來平靜地與他交談並解決衝突。

It has always been important to his parents that they ate dinner and did things together. In Italy, it is important to have lunches and dinners with the family, so every time they are there they try to spend time together, have dinner with his parents and his brother's family.
對他的父母來說，一起吃晚餐、一起做事一直很重要。在義大利，與家人一起吃午餐和晚餐很重要，所以每次他們在那裡時，他們都會嘗試花時間在一起，與父母和兄弟的家人共進晚餐。

When Andrea was a teenager, he went out more and spent a lot of time with his friends. His brother was a bit quieter than him and his parents were used to that. Andrea probably caused his mother more worry. His interests during his teens were going out with friends, concerts, music. He also hung out with friends he did voluntary work with. His teenage period has affected him as an adult to the extent that he met people then with whom he still has relationships and good contacts. His teenage period gave him social experiences he could learn from. His education gave him a stable base to be able to grow as a person, knowledge and perception of work and he received input to his way of thinking and his personality. This has made him into a confident and calm person as an adult.
當安德里亞（Andrea）十幾歲的時候，他外出的次數較多，並且花了很多時間與朋友在一起。他的哥哥比他安靜一點，他的父母已經習慣了。安德里亞可能讓他的母親更加擔心。他十幾歲的時候的興趣是和朋友出去玩、聽音樂會、聽音樂。他也和一起做志工的朋友一起出去玩。他的青少年時期對成年後的他產生了影響，因為他遇到了當時仍然與他保持著關係和良好聯繫的人。他的青少年時期給了他可以學習的社會經驗。他的教育為他的個人成長、知識和工作觀念提供了穩定的基礎，並為他的思維方式和個性提供了輸入。這使他成年後成為一個自信、冷靜的人。

Andrea says that he is like both of his parents. He is a little shy or introvert when he needs to express his feelings, he is not one for big gestures, neither in words nor actions, such as kissing and cuddling, there he is more like his father. At the same time, he is good at creating things, showing and feeling empathy, which he gets from his mother. He wants to resolve conflicts and deal with things before they have gone too far. He is very patient like his mother, it takes a lot to make him angry. The difference between him and his mother is that he is not a person who worries, he remains calm,sven—Ä in stressful situations.
安德里亞說他就像他的父母一樣。當他需要表達自己的感受時，他會有點害羞或內向，他不是一個喜歡大動作的人，無論是言語還是動作，例如親吻和擁抱，他更像是他的父親。同時，他善於創造事物，表現和感受同理心，這是他從母親那裡學到的。他想在事情鬧得太遠之前解決衝突並處理事情。他像他的母親一樣很有耐心，需要很多努力才能讓他生氣。他和母親的不同之處在於，他不是一個憂心忡忡的人，他在有壓力的情況下保持冷靜。

With regard to bringing up a child, Andrea wants to take inspiration from his parents, they are role models for him. As a father, he would perhaps show more love through actions and words than his father did, and also try to give the child emotional support.
在教養孩子方面，Andrea 希望從父母那裡得到啟發，他們是他的榜樣。身為父親，他或許會比父親更常透過行動和言語表達愛，也會盡力給予孩子情感上的支持。

In their family, his mother showed love by being more physical. He says they were a family with three men and they did not cuddle very much or use body contact to show feelings. It was more about spending time together.
在他們的家庭中，他的母親透過更多的身體活動來表達愛。他說他們是一個由三個男人組成的家庭，他們不經常擁抱或使用身體接觸來表達感情。更多的是花時間在一起。

Silvia lived all her childhood together with her parents in the same place in the same home, and her parents still live in the same house. Her parental home is in a village 20-30 km north of Milan. Her parental home has been there for several generations, her father also grew up there, and for a period of time her paternal grandmother lived there with them.
西爾維亞（Silvia）的整個童年都與父母住在同一個地方、同一個家裡，而她的父母仍然住在同一棟房子裡。她父母的家位於米蘭以北 20-30 公里的一個村莊。她的父母家已經有好幾代了，她的父親也在那裡長大，有一段時間她的祖母也住在那裡。

The place in itself has not affected Silvia so much, but she doesn't have to think that village life suits her and she said she has spent her life avoiding the village gossips. She is perhaps a little more introvert in this way. She has never felt lonely, even though she was an only child, she had her cousins and friends at school to hang out with.
這個地方本身並沒有對西爾維亞產生太大的影響，但她不必認為鄉村生活適合她，她說她一生都在避免村裡的流言蜚語。這樣看來，她或許比較內向一點。她從來沒有感到孤獨，儘管她是獨生子，但她在學校有表兄弟姐妹和朋友一起出去玩。

Silvia's maternal grandmother and mother were very religious and belonged (belong) to the Catholic church. Her mother had difficulty in accepting that Silvia did not want to go to church. Silvia's maternal grandfather and also Silvia helped out at the church, however. She thinks that she believes in some way, but she does not identify her belief as any particular religion.
西爾維亞的外祖母和母親非常虔誠，屬於天主教會。她的母親很難接受西爾維亞不想去教會的事實。然而，西爾維亞的外祖父和西爾維亞也在教堂幫忙。她認為她以某種方式相信，但她不認為她的信仰是任何特定的宗教。

Silvia describes her parents' marital relationship as balancing one another very well with one another and with her. It was her father who made decisions, as her mother is a little uncertain, she needed someone who convinced her. They resolved their conflicts through discussions, perhaps with a period of silence, and then a final discussion.
西爾維亞形容她父母的婚姻關係是彼此之間以及與她之間都很好地平衡。做出決定的是她的父親，因為她的母親有些猶豫，她需要一個說服她的人。他們透過討論解決了衝突，也許是一段時間的沉默，然後是最後的討論。

Silvia is most like her father, as she is a little more introvert. Her mother is more shy than introvert.
西爾維亞最像她的父親，因為她有點內向。她的母親比內向更害羞。

Silvia is also sensitive, but is good at protecting herself, she has coping strategies.
西爾維亞像她父親一樣相當嚴肅，有時有點過分，尤其是在工作方面。她的性情比她父親還要冷靜。她試圖挑戰她從母親身上看到的敏感的一面，並試圖更像她的父親。她不想擁有母親那樣的敏感。西薇雅也很敏感，但善於保護自己，她有應對策略。

In Silvia's family they did not show that they cared for one another through physical tenderness between the adults. Her parents showed physical affection to her, and still do when she is at home. Silvia thinks this is a nice way to express and show love.
在西爾維亞的家裡，大人之間並沒有透過身體上的溫柔來表現出對彼此的關心。她的父母對她表現出了身體上的愛，而且當她在家時仍然如此。西爾維亞認為這是表達和表達愛的好方法。

Silvia's experiences as a teenager have affected her as an adult. She developed various interests that she still has, her interest in art developed when she was a teenager. All of the friends she made then are still her friends now. Silvia describes her teenage years as fantastic and her favourite age was 16. She wanted to be a bit different from the others at school, so she and her friends began listening to rock music and punk. She also took the train to the mountains with her friends. Silvia loved to read, and read mostly pulp fiction, which was young Italian authors. She also became familiar with the classics, school was a good starting point as she was studying humanities. She studied Latin and ancient Greek, and she read many old tragedies. During her teens she developed her love for travel and discovered the freedom of travelling.
西爾維亞青少年時期的經歷影響了她成年後的經歷。她發展了各種興趣，至今仍然如此，她對藝術的興趣是在她十幾歲的時候就發展出來的。她當時結交的所有朋友現在仍然是她的朋友。 Silvia 形容她的青少年時期非常美好，她最喜歡的年齡是 16 歲。她還和朋友一起坐火車去山裡。西爾維亞喜歡讀書，讀的大多是義大利年輕作家的通俗小說。她也開始熟悉古典文學，學校是她學習人文學科的一個很好的起點。她學習拉丁語和古希臘語，讀過許多古老的悲劇。在她十幾歲的時候，她就愛上了旅行，並發現了旅行的自由。

During the summer, they travelled to the Alps, which she particularly enjoyed.

With regard to alcohol and drugs, it could happen on occasions, during his late teens and early twenties, that he drank a little too much with his friends. He had understood now that he has moved to Sweden that people in Italy have a different attitude to alcohol, his experience from Italy is that it is part of the social culture to have a glass of wine at dinner, one doesn't meet up to drink but it is part of the social behaviour. He and Silvia can have a glass of wine with their dinner sometimes, or drink a beer or alcoholic drink when they go out.

Silvia's physical and mental health was good when she was growing up, but she has experienced problems with her physical health as an adult, in that she has a problem with her thyroid gland. She has begun medication with the lowest dose of Levaxin. During the first interviews, Silvia was waiting for a verdict on myomas, benign growths she had in her uterus, and she was then told by the doctor that she should have her uterus removed. Silvia had had myomas since 2015-2016 and she had an operation in autumn 2022. Silvia and Andrea were recommended, as a result of the imminent operation, to withdraw their application to adopt and to apply again when Silvia had recovered from the operation. Hearing that she might have to have her uterus removed was tough, but she had processed it mentally and hoped it would not hamper the adoption process. Talking about feelings with regard to understanding that she was definitely unable to have biological children, Silvia said that it was already clear to her that this would not happen, she is 42 years old. She felt in her body that it was difficult or impossible to have a child. Silvia says that things got better for her after the operation, she feels well, all of the problems she had before the operation have disappeared.

Andrea's parents always wanted him to take his education seriously. He began his university studies directly after high school. He studied architecture in Milan and in addition to his studies he worked at a group home. He worked for a year at a professional firm of architects and then began his PhD studies and applied to a programme. After that, he spent 4 years as a PhD. He had difficulty finding a permanent job and worked in temporary posts as researcher, as there was a financial crisis in Italy. He then began working in a school as a support teacher for children with intellectual disabilities, which he did at the same time as his other job at the university for two years. In January 2017, they moved to Sweden and Andrea was given a contract as a post-doc, which he had for  years. After that he had a temporary post as researcher, before applying for the post of university lecturer in 2020. Andrea had several interviews in the selection process and found this a very stressful period. He was offered a permanent post, which he began in January 2021.
安德里亞的父母一直希望他認真對待自己的教育。高中畢業後，他直接開始大學就讀。他在米蘭學習建築，除了學習之外，他還在一個集體之家工作。他在一家專業建築師公司工作了一年，然後開始攻讀博士學位併申請了一個專案。此後，他又攻讀了四年的博士學位。由於義大利爆發金融危機，他很難找到一份長期工作，只能擔任研究員的臨時職位。然後，他開始在一所學校擔任智障兒童的支援教師，並與大學的其他工作同時進行了兩年。 2017 年 1 月，他們搬到了瑞典，Andrea 獲得了博士後合同，他的合同是 年。之後，他擔任了臨時研究員，然後在 2020 年申請大學講師職位。他於 2021 年 1 月開始擔任永久職位。

Sometimes there are periods with lots to do and it feels stressful then. He believes that he will carry on working in this field, they are trying to extend their programme and if this is successful, he looks forward to the possibility of having students in a programme. Andrea is positive about the future; there are many opportunities for him and he is optimistic. Andrea can travel in his work if the project he is working on requires it, but at the moment he is mostly lecturing and located in Luleå. Andrea says that he can plan his day.

Andrea and Silvia met at university on the PhD programme, they worked on a joint project, a museum.
安德里亞和西爾維亞在大學攻讀博士學位時相識，他們共同致力於一個博物館計畫。

Silvia sent an email to Andrea and asked if they could meet to talk about the joint project. He understood that she was interested in him and he said yes to meeting up for snacks and a drink. What he liked about Silvia was that he liked her physically and that they had many common interests and this is something that still keeps them together. They are in agreement on what they want to do and over time he has understood that they complement one another well. They are very different, Silvia is more proactive, active and direct in what she does.
西爾維亞（Silvia）向安德里亞（Andrea）發送了一封電子郵件，詢問他們是否可以見面討論聯合專案。他知道她對他感興趣，所以他同意見面吃點零食和飲料。他喜歡西爾維亞的原因是他喜歡她的外表，而且他們有許多共同的興趣，這使他們仍然在一起。他們在自己想做的事情上達成了一致，隨著時間的推移，他了解到他們可以很好地互補。他們非常不同，Silvia做事更加主動、主動和直接。

They have both been very dedicated to their work, perhaps too much sometimes. They can both think about work when they are at home, this is something they should both get better at.
他們都非常專注於自己的工作，有時也許有些太過了。他們在家的時候都可以思考工作，這是他們都應該做得更好的事。

They are different in their approach to life and to other people sometimes. Silvia can be very direct, if she does not like people, for instance, which can make Andrea uncomfortable. There are things that are different about them, but he does not think you should try to change another person. There are things she can get angry about, such as him being more relaxed and lazy, she thinks he should be more active and argue more. She wants to be on time and he often comes later. Their fights usually take the form of Silvia becoming angry, or raising her voice and expressing her feelings, while he becomes more defensive and they can have an argument the Italian way, but if he thinks it is becoming too heated, he will avoid conflict by going off to a different room and letting some time pass. Then one of them will try to take up the subject and discuss it in a calmer way to agree or to agree that they disagree.
他們有時對生活和對他人的態度有所不同。例如，如果西爾維亞不喜歡別人，她可能會非常直接，這會讓安德里亞感到不舒服。他們之間有一些不同之處，但他認為你不應該試圖改變另一個人。有些事情她可能會生氣，例如他更放鬆、更懶惰，她認為他應該更主動、更多爭論。她想準時，他常常遲到。他們的爭吵通常表現為西爾維亞生氣，或提高聲音表達自己的感受，而他變得更加防禦性，他們可以用意大利方式爭論，但如果他認為事情變得太激烈，他會避免衝突去另一個房間並等待一段時間。然後，他們中的一個人會嘗試討論這個主題，並以更平靜的方式進行討論，以表示同意或同意他們不同意的觀點。

They have not experienced any crisis and they have always been together. The period before they came to Sweden they both experienced a sort of life crisis. They were not happy in their own lives, nothing to do with their relationship, they were unhappy in their professional lives. They resolved this when they moved to Sweden. By moving to a new country one leaves a lot behind, social network, security in the form of family, and this made them grow as people and it strengthened their relationship.
他們沒有經歷過什麼危機，一直在一起。在他們來瑞典之前，他們都經歷了某種人生危機。他們自己的生活並不快樂，與他們的關係無關，他們的職業生活也不快樂。他們搬到瑞典後解決了這個問題。透過搬到一個新的國家，人們會留下很多東西，社交網絡，家庭形式的安全感，這使他們作為人成長並加強了他們的關係。

Andrea believes that Silvia will describe him in the same way that he describes himself. She will say that he is calm and relaxed, that he gives her stability, while she complains that sometimes she has to push him and she complains about him being late for things.
安德里亞相信西爾維亞會用他描述自己的方式來描述他。她會說他冷靜、放鬆，給了她穩定，但她抱怨有時她不得不逼他，抱怨他做事遲到。

He thinks that something that has tested their relationship and thus made it stronger is that he has worked away from home for periods of time. At the beginning of their relationship, he was in Stockholm and Visby for six months.
他認為，有件事考驗了他們的關係，從而使他們的關係變得更加牢固，那就是他已經離開家工作了一段時間。在他們的關係開始時，他在斯德哥爾摩和維斯比待了六個月。

Silvia's words carry most weight, he is quicker to say ok, he doesn't want to have a discussion or argue. If they have a conflict, they try to find a compromise and they always manage to find a solution that works for them both in the end. When it comes to small things, he is happy to give way. If there is something important that he really cares about, he may stand his ground.
西爾維亞的話最有分量，他很快就說好，他不想討論或爭論。如果他們發生衝突，他們會嘗試找到妥協方案，並且最終總能找到對雙方都有效的解決方案。在小事上，他很樂意讓步。如果有他真正關心的重要事情，他可能會堅持自己的立場。

Andrea believes that Silvia is open towards him, he can see in her face how she is feeling, she is open to everyone. He is probably the opposite, he can keep things to himself for a while before he opens up to her.
安德里亞相信西爾維亞對他開放，他可以從她的臉上看到她的感受，她對每個人都開放。他可能恰恰相反，他可以先把事情保密一段時間，然後再向她敞開心扉。

西爾維亞說，她和安德里亞於 2011 年開始約會，自 2013 年起就住在一起。

What attracted her to Andrea was that they balance one another in a good way. He is very calm and she is very driven. Andrea is a very good person to have beside one as support in life. What was important at first was that they had the same interests, and then on a personal level.
安德里亞吸引她的地方在於他們以良好的方式相互平衡。他非常冷靜，而她非常有動力。安德里亞是一個非常好的人，有一個人在身邊作為生活的支持。首先重要的是他們有相同的興趣，然後是在個人層面。

What she appreciates about Andrea now is the feeling that she knows he is there all the time. It is love that is felt through his presences. There is good harmony in their marriage, they reason similarly and talk to one another a lot, which she thinks is important.
她現在欣賞安德里亞的是她知道他一直都在的感覺。透過他的存在感受到的是愛。他們的婚姻很和諧，他們的道理相似，彼此交談很多，她認為這一點很重要。

With regard to differences of opinion, Silvia mentions football, she is totally uninterested in football. Silvia is perhaps a little closer to religion than Andrea is, which is due to their upbringing. Silvia has no problem with this, they agree on the most important questions. They don't fight very often, Silvia can become irritated when he has too much focus on his mobile phone. When asked about how they fight, Silvia says that Andrea is very calm all the time, she is usually the one who is a bit meaner. She gets angry for two minutes and then it passes.
對於意見分歧，Silvia提到了足球，她對足球完全不感興趣。西爾維亞也許比安德里亞更接近宗教，這是由於他們的成長經歷所致。西爾維亞對此沒有異議，他們在最重要的問題上達成了一致。他們不常吵架，當西爾維亞過於專注於手機時，他會變得很煩躁。當被問到他們如何吵架時，Silvia表示Andrea一直很冷靜，她通常是比較刻薄的那個。她生氣了兩分鐘，然後就過去了。

With regard to whose words carry the most weight, when they have different opinions on something Silvia says that she is usually the one wanting to take over. Andrea talks about his opinions, and is right, but she is the one who likes to have the final word. When she knows that he is right, she backs down a little. He doesn't let her walk over him, but has a gentler way of discussing things. She is more determined and faster.
至於誰的話最有分量，當他們對某件事有不同意見時，西爾維亞說，她通常是想要接管的人。安德莉亞說出了自己的看法，說得也沒錯，但她是喜歡說了算的人。當她知道他是對的時，她退縮了一些。他不讓她從他身上走過，而是以一種更溫和的方式討論事情。她更加堅定，速度也更快。

They are both open towards the other is there is anything to discuss. This is very positive, she feels secure in being able to talk to Andrea about everything. She also believes that Andrea thinks it is positive that they can share things with one another.
他們都對對方持開放態度，有什麼可以討論的。這是非常積極的，她對能夠與安德里亞談論所有事情感到安全。她也相信安德里亞認為他們可以互相分享事情是正面的。

Andrea is more open towards her now than he was at first, as he was very introvert when they first met. He has said that he can talk to her in a different way than he is used to, but sometimes she has to drag things out of him.
安德里亞現在對她比一開始更加開放，因為他們第一次見面時他非常內向。他曾說過，他可以用不同於以往的方式與她交談，但有時她不得不向他強行拖曳。

What Silvia thinks is good in their relationship is their dialogue and that she knows she can trust him. If she has to think of something negative, she would sometimes prefer him to take the initiative to do
西爾維亞認為他們的關係中最好的是他們的對話，她知道她可以信任他。如果她不得不去想一些負面的事情，她有時會更希望他主動去做。

At the end of 2020, they bought their current home in the Klintbacken area of Luleå. When they were in Milan, they lived in Andrea's apartment, which his parents had helped him buy.

Silvia's closest friends are friends from upper-secondary school. Before the pandemic, they used to meet every year, and she hopes this can be the case again. They have friends in Sweden, too.

Andrea says that in his view of humanity he is open, tolerant and supportive. Sometimes too much, so that he tends not to be able to say yes or be straight with people. He can be too kind sometimes. The values he would like to pass on to his child are those he has received from his parents, to get them to understand that we are social beings who need to contribute to society.
安德里亞說，在他的人性觀中，他是開放、寬容和支持的。有時太多，以至於他往往無法說「是」或與人坦誠相待。有時他可能太善良了。他想傳授給孩子的價值觀是他從父母那裡得到的價值觀，讓他們明白我們是社會人，需要為社會做出貢獻。

Andrea describes himself as a person who likes to create a positive environment around himself. Having said that, he is not a person who is extremely optimistic or sees everything as happy and bright all the time. He tries to always find the positive in the situation he is in and to be supportive and open towards the people around him.
安德里亞（Andrea）形容自己是一個喜歡在自己周圍創造積極環境的人。話雖如此，他並不是一個極度樂觀，也不是一個總是把一切都看成幸福和光明的人。他總是試圖在自己所處的情況下找到積極的一面，並對周圍的人表示支持和開放。

Andrea describes Silvia as more extrovert, while he is more introvert. He is calm whereas she has more of a tendency to express her feelings, she shows her temper. Andrea appreciates and likes that she gets so enthusiastic about things and can show it. If she likes something she can get very involved in it.
安德里亞 (Andrea) 形容西爾維亞 (Silvia) 比較外向，而他 (Silvia) 則比較內向。他很冷靜，而她更傾向於表達自己的感受，她會表現出自己的脾氣。安德里亞（Andrea）欣賞並喜歡她對事物如此熱情並能夠表現出來。如果她喜歡某件事，她就會非常投入。

Silvia describes her view of humanity as tolerant of others. She has learnt to be more cautious, not to give people her trust right from the start. The values she wants to pass on to her children are openness and tolerance towards other people, not to judge anything or anyone. Being generous but at the same time cautious, feeling one's way forward. Not being too optimistic, but being realistic.
西爾維亞將她的人性觀描述為寬容他人。她學會了更加謹慎，不要從一開始就給予別人信任。她想傳遞給孩子的價值觀是對他人的開放和寬容，而不是評判任何事或任何人。慷慨但同時謹慎，摸索著前進的道路。不要太樂觀，但要現實。

Silvia is fairly brave when it comes to big questions, but at the same time she is also very afraid when it comes to smaller questions. For instance, it was natural for her to leave Italy and move to Sweden, but at the same time she is very scared of swimming. The strengths she has are that she is reliable and creative. Her weaknesses are that she is a little afraid, which she has unconsciously had passed on from her mother. Another weakness is that she stresses/pushes herself, questions herself a lot, perhaps too much sometimes. She requires 100 per cent from herself almost all of the time, and sometimes it is hard to maintain that pace. She is optimistic and stubborn, but in a positive way, she continues down the right path until she gets where she is going if she feels this is important.
西爾維亞在遇到大問題時相當勇敢，但同時在遇到較小問題時她也非常害怕。例如，她離開義大利搬到瑞典是很自然的事，但同時她又非常害怕游泳。她的優點是可靠且富有創造力。她的弱點是有點害怕，這是她不知不覺中遺傳自母親的。另一個弱點是她對自己施加壓力/鞭策自己，經常質疑自己，也許有時太多了。她幾乎每時每刻都要求自己百分之百努力，有時很難維持這樣的節奏。她樂觀而固執，但以積極的方式，如果她覺得這很重要，她會繼續沿著正確的道路前進，直到到達目的地。

Silvia describes Andrea as calm, patient and kind. She believes that Andrea would describe her as proactive, determined and committed when she does things. Andrea's strengths are that he is reliable, patient, generous. His weaknesses are that he is very introvert with regard to feelings, sometimes he hides the fact that he is stressed at work. He doesn't show it outwardly, it is sometimes difficult to know what is happening and how he is feeling, whether something has happened. He is a little lazy, and doesn't take so many initiatives to doing things as she does.
西爾維亞 (Silvia) 形容安德里亞 (Andrea) 冷靜、耐心且友善。她相信安德里亞會形容她做事時積極主動、堅定、忠誠。安德里亞的優點是可靠、有耐心、慷慨。他的缺點是在感情方面非常內向，有時會隱藏自己工作壓力大的事實。他不會表現出來，有時很難知道發生了什麼，他的感覺如何，是否發生了什麼事。他有點懶，做事不像她那麼主動。

Motives for the adoption
收養動機

Andrea finds it difficult to say exactly when these thoughts began. In the beginning, when they first met, they did not think about this very much. It was more when their relationship deepened. Adoption was something they were both interested in even before they knew whether or not they could have children of their own. They both knew that they wanted to explore it as an alternativ When they were in Italy, neither of them had a steady job. They thought they did not have the (e possibility to have a family then, and reasoned that if it happened it would be fine. It was not something they were trying for at that time, because they would not have had stable and financially sound conditions for the child. When they moved to Sweden they had jobs, a stable situation and they began to think about starting a family then. They thought that they might be a little too old to have a biological child and they noticed that they had difficulty getting pregnant. Adoption became an increasingly relevant thought.
安德里亞發現很難確切地說出這些想法是什麼時候開始的。剛開始的時候，他們第一次見面的時候，並沒有想太多。當他們的關係加深時更是如此。甚至在他們知道是否可以擁有自己的孩子之前，收養就是他們兩個都感興趣的事情。他們都知道他們想探索它作為一種替代方案。他們認為當時他們沒有可能擁有一個家庭，並認為如果發生了就好了。有穩定的生活，然後他們開始考慮組建家庭，他們認為自己可能有點太老了，無法生孩子，而且他們發現很難生孩子。

They decided that as soon as they became Swedish citizens, they would start an adoption process. Now that they have the possibility to give a child a good life, they want to do so.
他們決定，一旦成為瑞典公民，他們就會開始收養程序。現在他們有機會給孩子一個美好的生活，他們想這樣做。

They have never investigated why they could not have biological children, but Silvia knew that she would have difficulties getting pregnant because of her myomas.
他們從未調查過為什麼他們不能生育親生孩子，但西爾維亞知道，由於肌瘤，她很難懷孕。

Andrea says that his feelings at not being able to have biological children are complicated, it is a natural instinct to want to have biological children, but at the same time, adoption has always been an alternative for them. Both for their own sake, and to help a child and contribute to society. They havenever felt a desperate need to have biological children. He believes that Silvia feels the same way that he does. They prefer to adopt rather than test medical possibilities. They thought that if a child did not come along naturally, they would like to adopt.
安德里亞表示，自己對於無法擁有親生孩子的感受很複雜，想要擁有親生孩子是一種本能，但同時，收養一直是他們的另一種選擇。既是為了自己，也是為了幫助孩子，為社會做出貢獻。他們從未感到迫切需要生孩子。他相信西爾維亞和他有同樣的感受。他們更願意採用而不是測試醫療可能性。他們認為，如果孩子不是天生的，他們願意收養。

Silvia says that their thoughts of having children did not really begin when they lived in Milan, as there were problems then with work. When they became established in Sweden, it was time, but then Silvia began to have problems with myomas. She has actually been thinking about adopting for a long time, it is an idea she has had for many years. But she felt that they needed to have an orderly situation with regard to jobs, apartment and so on.
西爾維亞說，他們生孩子的想法並不是在米蘭生活時才真正開始的，因為當時工作遇到了問題。當他們在瑞典成立時，是時候了，但隨後西爾維亞開始出現肌瘤問題。其實收養這個事情她已經想了很久了，這個想法她已經有很多年了。但她覺得工作、住房等方面需要有秩序。

They have not investigated why they have not been able to have children, they did not try for a very long time. Silvia then began to experience myomas, which have made it impossible for anything else to grow in her uterus. Silvia says that her reactions to this have varied. She is a fairly strong person in this way, she tries never to regret her choices. She does not want to complain or cry over something that seemed right at the time. This is life, she has never regarded adoption as a second-hand choice.
他們沒有調查為什麼他們不能生孩子，他們很長一段時間都沒有嘗試。隨後，西爾維亞開始出現肌瘤，這使得她的子宮內無法生長任何其他東西。西爾維亞說她對此的反應各不相同。她是個相當堅強的人，她努力不讓自己的選擇後悔。她不想為當時看來正確的事情抱怨或哭泣。這就是生活，她從來沒有把收養當成二手的選擇。

It was Silvia who initiated the idea of adoption, she had talked to friends about it a few years ago. It is something she wants to do to give someone else the opportunity of a better life, to give love to someone who needs it. She began talking to Andrea about it and he was positive. In 2021, they began to read about adoption on the internet, to see whether or not the process was the same as in Italy. Around two years ago they began to talk about adoption in earnest.
收養的想法是西爾維亞提出的，她幾年前就和朋友談過這件事。她想做的就是給別人更好生活的機會，把愛送給需要愛的人。她開始與安德里亞談論這件事，安德里亞對此表示肯定。 2021年，他們開始在網路上閱讀有關收養的信息，看看這個過程是否與義大利相同。大約兩年前，他們開始認真討論收養問題。

Preparations
準備工作

With regard to preparations, Andrea says that they try to gather information, they have been on the parental courses, they are prepared to the extent that they have had lots of discussions. But ultimately, they are aware that this will entail a major change and that becoming parents will be a new experience for them. Depending on whether they get a match, they need to prepare themselves in various ways and when they decided to start this process they were aware that they needed to prepare.
關於準備工作，安德里亞說，他們努力收集信息，他們參加過家長課程，他們已經做好了充分的準備，進行了很多討論。但最終，他們意識到這將帶來重大變化，成為父母對他們來說將是一種新的體驗。根據他們是否獲得比賽，他們需要以各種方式做好準備，當他們決定開始這個過程時，他們意識到他們需要做好準備。

Andrea would like to know as much as possible about the child's background to be prepared and to know what they should expect. But also to be able to help if something happens or if something from the child's past arises. They have not talked about this question exactly, but he thinks that Silvia would want to know the child's background to be prepared. The significance of the child's background depends on the age of the child, the older the child is, the more he or she will remember and have an impression of what has happened to them. A very young child may not have as many memories.
安德里亞希望盡可能多地了解孩子的背景，以便做好準備，並了解他們應該期待什麼。而且如果發生事情或孩子過去發生的事情出現，也能夠提供協助。這個問題他們還沒具體談過，不過他想西薇雅一定會想了解孩子的背景，以便做好準備。孩子背景的重要性取決於孩子的年齡，孩子年齡越大，他或她對發生在自己身上的事情的記憶和印象就越多。一個很小的孩子可能沒有那麼多記憶。

Depending on the situation and how much they know about it will determine when they tell the child it is adopted. One always tries to ensure the child does not feel rejected by anyone. The question will probably come up when the child becomes aware of its origins and it can be a trauma that needs to be processed, which can be painful and they must be prepared for this to be difficult. It depends a lot on the child's personality, age and what they have been through. He will try to avoid creating any stigma or hate towards the biological parents, he thinks that there are always reasons why one might have to reject a child. He will try to get the child to understand that sometimes people have no choice, and that giving away a child may be done to help the child and the best thing that someone can do for their child.
根據情況和他們對此的了解程度，將決定何時告訴孩子它是被收養的。人們總是盡力確保孩子不會感到被任何人拒絕。當孩子意識到它的起源時，這個問題可能會出現，這可能是一個需要處理的創傷，這可能是痛苦的，他們必須為此做好準備。這在很大程度上取決於孩子的個性、年齡以及他們經歷過的事情。他會盡力避免對親生父母造成任何恥辱或仇恨，他認為人們總是有理由不得不拒絕一個孩子。他會盡力讓孩子明白，有時人們別無選擇，送走孩子可能是為了幫助孩子，也是別人能為孩子做的最好的事。

Andrea is aware that the child may have lived in a not very good environment, it may come from a situation that was not good. Depending on how aware the child is, they will try to find solutions to deal with it. They will seek professional help if they feel they cannot manage it alone.
安德里亞意識到孩子可能生活在一個不太好的環境中，可能來自一個不好的環境。根據孩子的意識程度，他們會嘗試找到解決方案來應對。如果他們覺得自己無法獨自應對，他們會尋求專業協助。

They are trying to be very open about what country they would like to adopt from. At first, they did not have any special country in mind. When they began to look at adoption agencies, they saw that some of them had more rules and such with regard to age, so to maximise their chances they have chosen India and Hungary, as these countries are more open and give them a greater chance. This is something one discusses with the agencies at a later stage.
他們試圖對他們想從哪個國家收養孩子持非常開放的態度。起初，他們心裡並沒有什麼特別的國家。當他們開始考慮收養機構時，他們發現其中一些機構在年齡等方面有更多的規則，因此為了最大限度地提高收養機會，他們選擇了印度和匈牙利，因為這些國家更加開放，給了他們更大的機會。這是稍後階段與各機構討論的事情。

They have discussed their possibilities to receive a child with a disability. They have decided that they could not receive a child with a severe disability. This is because they think that they want to help a child and they are aware that they do not have a network that could help that sufficiently for that. Andrea has worked with people with intellectual disabilities, and to some extent also physical disabilities. These people may need constant support throughout their lives. They might have a brother or similar who can help them when their parents are gone. If they were in Italy, they could have their families as support, or if they had another child that could help out when they are no longer there. Andrea has seen what can happen when they do not have this help, he thinks that it would not be good for the child. They would give the child all they could for as long as they could, but then when they were no longer there, this person would be in a bad situation. The person would be in a country without family and this would not be good. They do not yet know how they will be as parents, so they don't know if they have the strength to manage it.
他們討論了接收殘疾兒童的可能性。他們決定不能接收患有嚴重殘疾的孩子。這是因為他們認為他們想幫助孩子，並且他們意識到他們沒有足夠的人脈來幫助他們。安德里亞（Andrea）曾與智障人士一起工作，在某種程度上也與身體殘障人士一起工作。這些人可能一生都需要持續的支持。他們可能有一個兄弟或類似的人，可以在父母去世時幫助他們。如果他們在義大利，他們可以得到家人的支持，或者如果他們有另一個孩子可以在他們不在義大利時提供幫助。安德里亞已經看到瞭如果沒有這種幫助會發生什麼，他認為這對孩子沒有好處。他們會盡可能地給予孩子一切，但當他們不再存在時，這個人的處境就會很糟糕。如果這個人身處一個沒有家人的國家，這可不太好。他們還不知道自己身為父母會怎樣，所以也不知道自己是否有力量去應付。

They have not set any fixed age limit for the child, they know that they are fairly old, they are over 40, so they do not insist they must have a very young child. It would be better for the child if it was older, so they are open for older children, they have not specified an age limit. They are perhaps not ready for a teenager or older, then things would be more complicated.
他們沒有為孩子設定任何固定的年齡限制，他們知道自己已經相當大了，已經40多歲了，所以他們並不堅持一定要生一個很小的孩子。如果孩子大一點的話會更好，所以他們對大一點的孩子開放，他們沒有規定年齡限制。他們可能還沒準備好面對青少年或更大的人，那麼事情就會變得更加複雜。

Andrea says that what is special for an adopted child varies a lot and depends on the child's past. Even if you have a positive experience with your adoptive parents, there is always something that makes you feel different from other children. It is a complicated relationship and can be even more complicated than an ordinary parent-child relationship. One thing adoptive parents might expect
安德里亞說，對於領養的孩子來說，什麼是特別的，差異很大，並且取決於孩子的過去。即使您與養父母相處的經驗很積極，但總是會有一些事情讓您感覺與其他孩子不同。這是一種複雜的關係，甚至比普通的親子關係還要複雜。養父母可能期望的一件事

They began their preparations online, they went through the organisations that handle the adoption process, they looked at the different countries, considered the opportunities available. One good preparation was the course for adoptive parents, that was very interesting, they got to have digital meetings with other couples who had various reasons for adopting. The content provided by the course leaders and the videos shown were really interesting. Silvia has also spoken to acquaintances who have experienced adoption as part of her preparations.
他們開始在線上準備，他們瀏覽了處理收養過程的組織，他們考察了不同的國家，考慮了可用的機會。一個很好的準備是為養父母開設的課程，這非常有趣，他們必須與其他出於各種收養原因的夫婦進行數位會議。課程負責人提供的內容和播放的影片非常有趣。作為準備工作的一部分，西爾維亞還與經歷過收養經歷的熟人進行了交談。

They have told their friends in Italy that they intend to adopt, and their friends were very happy. They have also told a few friends in Luleå, who were also really pleased. They have chosen not to tell their families yet, as they do not want to give them news of something that might not actually happen. Silvia has told her aunt.
他們已經告訴義大利的朋友他們打算收養，朋友們都很高興。他們也告訴了呂勒奧的一些朋友，他們也非常高興。他們選擇暫時不告訴家人，因為他們不想告訴家人一些可能實際上不會發生的事情。西爾維亞已經告訴她阿姨了。

Everyone has expressed support for their plans to adopt. One friend has a partner who was adopted many years ago, he had a very positive experience and it was good to hear about this. She has talked a lot with a friend in Italy, his brother and partner adopted a pair of siblings who were 7 and 9 years old.
每個人都表示支持他們的收養計劃。一位朋友有一個多年前被收養的伴侶，他有一個非常積極的經歷，很高興聽到這個消息。她和義大利的一個朋友聊了很多，他的哥哥和伴侶收養了一對7歲和9歲的兄弟姊妹。

They are prepared to receive a child that has lived in a not very good environment. It might be a child that cannot speak, it will be a lot of work, but that is what they are here for. To support and help out, possibly with the aid of a professional, such as a speech therapist or a psychologist.
他們準備接收一個生活在不太好的環境的孩子。可能是一個不會說話的孩子，這將是一項繁重的工作，但這就是他們來這裡的目的。支持和幫助，可能需要專業人士的幫助，例如語言治療師或心理學家。

They looked at practical matters when choosing which country to adopt from. They are thinking about adopting from India or Hungary. This is based on their age, these countries provide a possibility for couples aged up to 50 years old, and they do not mind if the child is a little older. They are also thinking about Taiwan, but they have not decided anything yet.
他們在選擇收養哪個國家時會考慮實際問題。他們正在考慮從印度或匈牙利收養孩子。這是根據他們的年齡而定的，這些國家為50歲以下的夫婦提供了可能性，他們不介意孩子大一點。他們也在考慮台灣問題，但還沒有做出任何決定。

They have talked about a child with a disability, if it is something that can be helped by medication or psychological support, or a minor injury, they could receive a child with such problems. But they are here without their families. They have not talked about neuropsychiatry, if a child had severe autism she is not sure she could cope. Intellectual disability and developmental delays are also fine at a relatively low level. An acquaintance in Luleå has an adopted sister from Korea, the youngest child has psychological problems and it has been tough to see her.
他們談到了一個有殘疾的孩子，如果可以透過藥物或心理支持來幫助，或者是輕微的傷害，他們可以接收一個有這樣問題的孩子。但他們在這裡沒有家人。他們沒有談論神經精神病學，如果一個孩子患有嚴重的自閉症，她不確定自己能否應付。智力障礙和發育遲緩也處於相對較低的水平。呂勒奧的一位熟人收養了一位來自韓國的妹妹，最小的孩子有心理問題，很難見到她。

With regard to the child's age, she thinks up to 5-6 years and no older than 7 years.
對於孩子的年齡，她認為最多5-6歲，不超過7歲。

Silvia would like to know as much as possible about the child's background. She believes that it simplifies things for receiving the child, being able to help the child and seek professional help. She thinks it is easier to know what kind of help the child needs and to meet its needs if they know of its background. She would also like to know to be able to give the child the opportunity to make contact with its biological parents if it wants to do so. She believes that she and Andrea share the same views. Silvia says it is important to know the context of where the person has grown up. It says a lot about a person and how big the change will be for the child.
西爾維亞想盡可能多了解孩子的背景。她認為，這簡化了接收孩子的事情，能夠幫助孩子並尋求專業協助。她認為，了解孩子的背景就更容易知道孩子需要什麼樣的幫助並滿足需求。她也想知道如果孩子願意的話，是否能夠給孩子與親生父母接觸的機會。她相信她和安德里亞有著相同的觀點。西爾維亞說，了解一個人的成長環境很重要。它說明了很多關於一個人的事情，以及對孩子來說會有多大的改變。

The child's background is important, the context affects everything in some way. During the course for adoptive parents, they went through how the children live, sometimes their motor skills are affected, and developmental delays occur because of the environment they are living in. This affects— their language, and the way they communicate and think.
孩子的背景很重要，背景會以某種方式影響一切。在為養父母提供的課程中，他們了解了孩子們的生活方式，有時他們的運動技能受到影響，並且由於他們生活的環境而出現發育遲緩。方式。

Silvia thinks it is important to tell the child about its roots and biological family. To give the child a fairly realistic picture, but not in a negative way. Also to explain that its biological parents need to make this choice to give their child the opportunity for a better life.
西爾維亞認為告訴孩子自己的根源和親生家庭很重要。給孩子一個相當現實的畫面，但不是負面的。也要解釋其親生父母需要做出這樣的選擇，以便給孩子更好生活的機會。

It will be their family in Italy who will support them. In Italy it works so that the paternal grandparents help more, but on the other hand they don't have the same support from society as there is in Sweden. Andrea feels more secure here than if he was living in Italy but not close to his parents. He feels that he can receive support from the social services and this makes him feel secure.
支持他們的將是他們在義大利的家人。在義大利，這種做法可以讓祖父母提供更多幫助，但另一方面，他們卻得不到像瑞典那樣的社會支持。安德里亞在這裡感覺比住在義大利更安全，但與父母的關係並不親密。他覺得他可以得到社會服務的支持，這讓他感到安全。

If they had an adopted child, he thinks his parents would come here to help them at the beginning. He also thinks that Silvia's mother might dare to fly here if they had a child. They would also have support from their friends here in Sweden. Several of these friends have children.
如果他們有領養的孩子，他想他的父母一開始就會來這裡幫助他們。他還覺得，如果他們有了孩子，西爾維亞的母親說不定也敢飛來這裡。他們也將得到瑞典朋友的支持。這些朋友中有幾個有孩子。

Silvia is certain that her friend and the friend's partner would help them when necessary. They help one another now and she feels she can count on them. There are also other Italians in their network who could definitely help them.
西爾維亞確信她的朋友和朋友的伴侶會在必要時幫助他們。他們現在互相幫助，她覺得自己可以依靠他們。他們的網路中還有其他義大利人絕對可以幫助他們。

Andrea thinks it is difficult to answer what he can do to facilitate his and the child's attachment without knowing the situation, but he feels it is right to be open and creative to find the right way, to manage several different reactions. It is a trauma and a huge change for the child, so one needs to be aware of unexpected reactions and be able to deal with them. Andrea says that one must be supportive towards the child, as they might by scared and silent, not want to speak, this can be stressful as it is difficult to create a connection, but on the other hand it might turn out that there is a very positive reaction. One can never know, it is important to be prepared and to ask for help if one notices that things are not going in the right direction.
安德里亞認為，在不了解情況的情況下，很難回答他能做些什麼來促進他和孩子的依戀，但他認為開放和創造性地找到正確的方法、管理幾種不同的反應是正確的。這對孩子來說是一種創傷和巨大的變化，因此需要意識到意外的反應並能夠處理它們。安德里亞說，我們必須支持孩子，因為他們可能會害怕、沉默、不想說話，這可能會給孩子帶來壓力，因為很難建立聯繫，但另一方面，可能會發現，非常積極的反應。一個人永遠無法知道，如果發現事情沒有朝著正確的方向發展，做好準備並尋求幫助是很重要的。

It is difficult for Andrea to talk about what is special about being an adoptive parent, as he has never been a parent at all. He can imagine that one needs to be more prepared for the child to always feel it is slightly different. You make a choice for the child, you change the child's life, and this may not always be perceived as a positive change on all levels. It is a type of connection that it requires a lot of time and energy to create. One needs to create something that one gets for free as a biological parent.
安德里亞很難談論身為養父母的特別之處，因為他根本沒有當過父母。他可以想像，要讓孩子總覺得有些不一樣，就需要做更多的準備。您為孩子做出選擇，您改變了孩子的生活，這可能並不總是在各個層面上被視為積極的變化。這是一種需要花費大量時間和精力才能建立的連結。一個人需要創造一些可以作為親生父母免費獲得的東西。

Andrea feels excited, expectant and nervous about becoming an adoptive parent. They started this process as they thought it would be a positive change in their lives and he thinks that it is a very large change that will completely change their lifestyles. He has thoughts such as, "will I succeed?" and 'tam I really prepared for this?" Andrea believes one probably has the same thoughts when one is expecting a biological child.
安德里亞對於成為養父母感到興奮、期待和緊張。他們開始這個過程，因為他們認為這將是他們生活中的積極變化，而他認為這是一個非常大的變化，將徹底改變他們的生活方式。他有這樣的想法：“我會成功嗎？” 「我真的為此做好準備了嗎？」安德里亞相信，當一個人懷上親生孩子時，可能也會有同樣的想法。

Andrea believes that it will come naturally to tell the child it is adopted. The child will understand that it is adopted because it looks different, for instance. He thinks that the child will ask questions and he will explain, depending on whether the child is very young, one will have to explain in a way that the child can understand. But he believes that the initiative here will come more from the child than from him, the child will show when it is time to talk about these things.
安德里亞相信，告訴孩子自己是被領養的，這是很自然的事。例如，孩子會明白它是被收養的，因為它看起來不同。他認為孩子會問問題，他會解釋，要看孩子是不是很小，要用孩子能聽懂的方式解釋。但他相信，這裡的主動權更多來自孩子而不是他自己，孩子會表現出什麼時候該談論這些事情。

What Silvia can do make her and the child's attachment easier is to find something the child likes, to create a common base. She also thinks she can prepare herself for the child's culture and language to approach him or her. She thinks that at first she can create a common base for them to build on, to do something together, and then the emotional attachment will be gradually created.
西爾維亞能做的就是找到孩子喜歡的東西，建立一個共同的基礎，讓她和孩子的依戀變得更容易。她也認為她可以為孩子的文化和語言做好準備，以便與他或她接觸。她認為，首先她可以為他們建立一個共同的基礎，讓他們一起做一些事情，然後情感依戀就會逐漸產生。

With regard to special qualities that an adoptive parent of a child from another country needs, Silvia thinks that the first quality she thinks of is openness. Not having any emotional limit to be able to follow a fairly difficult process, it will be a long journey for them, both physically and mentally.
對於異國孩子的養父母所需的特殊特質，Silvia認為她首先想到的品質就是開放。沒有任何情感限制能夠完成一個相當困難的過程，這對他們來說將是一個漫長的旅程，無論是身體上還是精神上。

The expectations she has of becoming an adoptive parent are to begin a journey together, a family consists not only of blood ties, her friends are an extra family. Her expectation is to receive a child who needs a better environment, better circumstances and love. Helping out but also doing something together.
她對成為養父母的期望是一起開始一段旅程，家庭不僅僅是血緣關係，她的朋友也是一個額外的家人。她的期望是能收到一個需要更好的環境、更好的環境和愛的孩子。提供幫助，但也一起做一些事情。

If the child shows behaviours they cannot help it with, they will seek help for the child.
如果孩子表現出無法控制的行為，他們就會為孩子尋求幫助。

She has not thought about when she will tell the child that it is adopted, but when the time is right, when there is an opportunity and an atmosphere that feel right, before it is too late. She does not think there is an exact time, but intends to talk about this when it feels right for the child.
她沒有想過什麼時候告訴孩子是領養的，但當時機成熟、有機會、有合適的氛圍時，就為時已晚了。她認為沒有確切的時間，但打算在孩子覺得合適的時候談論這個問題。

Andrea says that their personalities will govern their parenting, he will be gentler and Silvia will be stricter and have rules. He knows that this will not be a problem, they will let the child know that they cannot go from one who says no to the other who will say yes. They will always follow a joint line and have common strategies and agree on upbringing.
安德里亞說，他們的個性將決定他們的養育方式，他會更溫和，西爾維亞會更嚴格，有規則。他知道這不會成為問題，他們會讓孩子知道他們不能從一個說「不」的人變成另一個說「是」的人。他們永遠有共同的路線、共同的策略、一致的教養。

Andrea says that the division of responsibility regarding the child will depend on how they organise things, but at the moment they share all household chores and responsibilities. He thinks that it will be the same with a child, that they share all of the responsibility.
安德里亞說，關於孩子的責任劃分將取決於他們如何組織事情，但目前他們分擔所有的家務和責任。他認為對孩子來說也是一樣，他們分擔所有的責任。

She and Andrea have been teachers, and group leaders for young people. She still has contact with some of her previous students. She has worked as a teacher and almost always had contact with children. In her job in Haparanda she worked with and for children and young people. In her private life, Andrea's brother has two daughters aged 7 and 4. They don't meet up very often, about 3-4 times a year, but they have a really good relationship with them, especially the older one. They have friends in Italy who have children, a friend whom she has a very good relationship with has a 6 year old and a 3 year old. Here in Sweden, she has her friend Cristina and her son, they often meet up together with her child.
她和安德里亞曾擔任教師和年輕人的小組領導。她仍然與她以前的一些學生保持聯繫。她擔任過教師，幾乎總是與孩子接觸。在哈帕蘭達的工作中，她與兒童和年輕人一起工作並為他們服務。在私生活中，Andrea 的哥哥有兩個女兒，分別是 7 歲和 4 歲。他們在義大利有朋友有孩子，其中一個和她有很好關係的朋友有一個6歲的孩子和一個3歲的孩子。在瑞典，她有她的朋友克里斯蒂娜和她的兒子，他們經常和她的孩子一起見面。

Silvia thinks that she and Andrea are in agreement with regard to bringing up children. She is a fairly typical Italian in that she is fairly worried and cautious with regard to children. Andrea is calmer, but they are in agreement. If they have different opinions on bringing up a child, they will manage it as they usually do, by discussing things and finding a good balance.
西爾維亞認為她和安德里亞在撫養孩子方面意見一致。她是個相當典型的義大利人，對孩子相當擔心和謹慎。安德里亞比較平靜，但他們的意見一致。如果他們在養育孩子的問題上有不同的意見，他們會像平常一樣處理，透過討論並找到一個良好的平衡。

With regard to the division of responsibility regarding the child, they already try to share the household chores and so on. They will find joint times and opportunities to be together.
在孩子的責任劃分上，他們已經嘗試分擔家務等等。他們會找到在一起的共同時間和機會。

What their family can give a child is love and a calm environment. She says that the child will be part of a larger family that extends from Sweden to Italy. She likes the idea that a child will have the opportunity to grow up with different cultures in its life.
他們的家庭能給孩子的是愛和平靜的環境。她說，這個孩子將成為一個從瑞典延伸到義大利的大家庭的一員。她喜歡這樣的想法：孩子將有機會在不同的文化中成長。

With regard to how a new family member will affect their lives, Silvia believes that a child changes everything in life. They have talked about travel and this was mentioned during the course for future adoptive parents. As they need to give the child stability, they will not travel for a time. If any of their family members in Italy wish to come and visit them, they are welcome.
對於新家庭成員將如何影響他們的生活，西爾維亞認為孩子會改變生活的一切。他們談論了旅行，在為未來養父母開設的課程中提到了這一點。由於需要給孩子穩定的生活，他們暫時不會出遊。如果他們在義大利的家人願意來看他們，我們歡迎他們。

Language
語言

During the first visit, Silvia and Andrea said that they will speak both Swedish and Italian with the child. The case workers have talked to the applicants during the course of the investigation about adopted children and their language development and that it is not recommended to introduce two new languages for the child, as this could make too many demands of the child. Silvia and Andrea have been understanding about this and will only speak Swedish with the child.
第一次拜訪時，西爾維亞和安德里亞表示，他們會和孩子說瑞典語和義大利語。個案工作人員在調查過程中曾與申請人討論領養兒童及其語言發展情況，不建議為孩子引入兩種新語言，因為這會對孩子提出太多要求。 Silvia 和 Andrea 對此表示理解，只會和孩子說瑞典語。

第 1 節 在所有有關收養兒童的問題中，兒童的最佳表現應具有最大的分量。

Section 2 A child may only be adopted if this is considered appropriate taking into account all of the circumstances. When assessing whether an adoption is appropriate, the child's need to be adopted and the applicants' suitability to adopt shall be given special consideration.

Married couple Andrea Luciani and Silvia Colombo are applying to Luleå municipality's social welfare board for consent to receive a child from abroad for the purpose of adoption.
安德里亞·盧西亞尼 (Andrea Luciani) 和西爾維亞·科倫坡 (Silvia Colombo) 夫婦正在向呂勒奧市社會福利委員會申請同意收養一名來自國外的孩子。

Both spouses have grown up in secure and stable circumstances. They live in a stable relationship and have an orderly situation with regard to social and financial circumstances. They are in good health, Silvia underwent a hysterectomy in autumn 2022, as she had a problem with myomas, which are benign muscular growths. Silvia has as a result of this presented a specialist doctor's certificate. This shows that Silvia's treatment is complete and she is regarded as healthy. Silvia's prognosis is excellent. As her uterus has been removed, there is no risk of the myomas returning.
夫妻雙方都在安全穩定的環境中長大。他們的關係穩定，社會和經濟狀況井然有序。他們健康狀況良好，西爾維亞 (Silvia) 於 2022 年秋季接受了子宮切除術，因為她患有肌瘤（一種良性肌肉增生）。西爾維亞因此獲得了專科醫生證書。這顯示西爾維亞的治療已經完成，她算是健康的。西爾維亞的預後非常好。由於她的子宮已被切除，因此肌瘤不存在復發的風險。

The couple has lived in Luleå since 2017 and they have built up a good social network that can provide support and security. They enjoy their jobs and their homes. They have good contact with their relatives and they have many mutual friends with whom they spend time. The couple is involuntarily childless and they regard adoption as an equally good alternative. They have a strong longing to have children, they share the same values and ideals and see children as an important part of life. They have attended the course for future adoptive parents. The couple themselves have experience of the huge change that is involved in starting afresh in a new country. They have many people in their network who have experience of the change of starting over in a new country and these people are determined to be there and support the couple, if the need should arise and in any way possible if they are allowed to adopt a child.
這對夫婦自 2017 年以來一直住在呂勒奧，他們建立了良好的社交網絡，可以提供支持和安全感。他們享受自己的工作和家庭。他們與親戚有良好的聯繫，並且有很多共同的朋友，可以一起度過時光。這對夫婦非自願地沒有孩子，他們認為收養也是同樣好的選擇。他們對孩子有著強烈的渴望，擁有相同的價值觀和理想，並將孩子視為生活的重要部分。他們參加了為未來養父母開設的課程。這對夫婦自己也經歷過在一個新的國家重新開始所帶來的巨大變化。他們的網絡中有很多人經歷過在一個新的國家重新開始的變化，如果有需要，這些人決心在那裡支持這對夫婦，如果他們被允許收養的話，以任何可能的方式一個孩子。

If the applicants do not already have children, it is not reasonable to require that they have any indepth experience of children. Professional knowledge and experience of children may be a positive experience to highlight in the background report. Examples of this could be as a contact person, a contactfamily orfosterfamily (Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare, 2014). Both Silvia and Andrea have professional experience of working with young people. Andrea has experience of working with people with functional impairments.
如果申請人還沒有孩子，那麼要求他們對孩子有深入的經驗是不合理的。兒童的專業知識和經驗可能是背景報告中需要強調的正面經驗。這方面的例子可以是聯絡人、聯絡人家庭或寄養家庭（瑞典國家健康與福利委員會，2014 年）。 Silvia 和 Andrea 都擁有與年輕人合作的專業經驗。安德里亞 (Andrea) 擁有與功能障礙人士合作的經驗。

They state that they are aware that the child will have special needs, and perhaps more difficulties than they had thought they could manage. They have also learnt from the course for adoptive parents that the child may have special needs. The case worker makes the assessment that the applicants show wise insights into adopted children and the challenges that they bear with them. The applicants have a network that will support them and an openness to seeking support for the child if necessary.
他們表示，他們意識到孩子會有特殊需要，可能會遇到比他們想像的更多的困難。他們也從養父母課程中了解到，孩子可能有特殊需求。個案工作者的評估表明，申請人對被收養的孩子以及他們所面臨的挑戰表現出明智的洞察力。申請人有一個可以支持他們的網絡，並且在必要時願意為孩子尋求支持。

Give the above and the references that have been provided, the case worker assesses that the spouses have the necessary conditions to be able to receive a child and to give this child a secure and loving upbringing in their home. The case worker also assesses that the social welfare board should grant consent to the spouses application to adopt.
根據上述內容和所提供的參考資料，個案工作者評估配偶雙方具備接收孩子並在家中給孩子一個安全和充滿愛的成長的必要條件。個案工作者也評估社會福利委員會應同意配偶的收養申請。

Describe in brief your relationship to the applicants.
簡要描述您與申請人的關係。

We have known one another since 2017. Cristina and Silvia met at the Swedish for immigrants course. We later realised we were also neighbours in Svartöstaden. In 2018 we, Cristina and Youen, both worked at the university as doctoral students and then we became colleagues to Andrea within the architecture and water department. During this period, we built up a really good relationship with Silvia and Andrea. We met twice a month to see films, go for walks or eat at restaurants or in one another's homes.
我們自 2017 年就認識了。後來我們意識到我們也是斯瓦爾特斯塔登的鄰居。 2018 年，我們克里斯蒂娜和尤恩都在大學擔任博士生，然後我們成為了安德里亞在建築和水利部門的同事。在此期間，我們與 Silvia 和 Andrea 建立了非常好的關係。我們每個月見兩次面，看電影、散步或去餐廳或彼此家吃飯。

Describe in brief your knowledge and experience of children.
簡單描述您對兒童的了解和經驗。

Cristina: I am the mother of a soon to be 2-year old little boy called Alvar. When I was 9 years old, I became an older sister and I loved taking care of my baby sister. Also, when I was younger I worked as a 'nanny' for a few summers. One summer I took care of four siblings on my own, that was hard work, but also good fun, I thought. One can learn a lot from a child's view of the world.
克里斯蒂娜：我是一個即將兩歲的小男孩阿爾瓦的母親。當我9歲的時候，我成為了一個姐姐，我喜歡照顧我的小妹妹。另外，當我年輕的時候，我曾做過幾個夏天的「保母」。有一年夏天，我獨自照顧四個兄弟姊妹，我想，這很辛苦，但也很有趣。人們可以從孩子的世界觀中學到很多。

Youen: I am the father of Alvar. I have also been leader at a holiday camp in France for children aged 10-12 years and trainer in athletics in Luleå for children aged 12-15 years. My knowledge of children is that they need to be able to explore their environment, experience things, express their creativity. They also need a framework of clear rules and regulations and points of reference (persons, objects) that help them to feel secure. I am also aware that a child's needs and interests change as it grows.
Youen：我是阿爾瓦的父親。我還擔任法國 10-12 歲兒童度假營的負責人，以及呂勒奧 12-15 歲兒童的田徑教練。我對孩子的了解是，他們需要能夠探索環境、體驗事物、表達創造力。他們還需要一個由明確的規則和規定以及參考點（人、物體）組成的框架，以幫助他們感到安全。我也意識到孩子的需求和興趣會隨著成長而改變。

Do you have special knowledge or experience of adopted children and their needs?
您對領養兒童及其需求有特殊的了解或經驗嗎？

Cristina: I have never taken care of adopted children and have never had a close friend who was adopted. But my sister had a classmate who was adopted. Adopted children may feel that they don't belong in their family constellation, and adoptive parents need to understand and work together with children on building up confidence between one another. Feeling secure with their adoptive parents is very important for the child's self-confidence.
克里斯蒂娜：我從來沒有照顧過領養的孩子，也沒有一個被領養的親密朋友。但我姐姐有個同學是被領養的。被領養的孩子可能會覺得自己不屬於自己的家庭星座，養父母需要理解並與孩子一起建立彼此之間的信任。與養父母相處的安全感對於孩子的自信心非常重要。

Youen: My best friend was adopted. He was adopted when he was 4 months old. I met him at school when he was 10 years old and I was 9 years old. I spent a lot of time with him as we lived in the same village. We were at the same boarding school at upper-secondary school. When he turned 18, he was given the opportunity to apply to see whether his biological mother had left a message for him at birth. It was a difficult choice for him, whether to apply or not. He wanted the opportunity to possibly find out more about his origins and at the same time it felt as though it would be betraying his adoptive parents, as he has such a good relationship with them.
Youen：我最好的朋友是被領養的。他4個月大時被收養。我在學校認識了他，當時他 10 歲，我 9 歲。我和他一起度過了很多時間，因為我們住在同一個村莊。我們在同一所寄宿學校讀高中。當他18歲的時候，他有機會申請查看他的生母是否在他出生時給他留言。申請與否，對他來說是個艱難的選擇。他希望有機會能夠更了解自己的出身，同時又感覺好像背叛了他的養父母，因為他和他們的關係非常好。

Information to mention in your description of the persons wanting to adopt
在描述想要收養的人時要提及的訊息

Describe any special parenting skills the applicants have. Listening to children. Observing and allowing the children to play on their own when they are focused. Explaining why something is not good. They are fair. They have patience with children. They play with children. They can teach children about art and culture.
描述申請人擁有的任何特殊育兒技能。傾聽孩子的聲音。觀察並讓孩子在註意力集中時自己玩耍。解釋為什麼某件事不好。他們是公平的。他們對孩子很有耐心。他們和孩子們一起玩。他們可以教導孩子藝術和文化。

How do you view the applicant's ability to manage the demands and challenges of being parent to an adopted child? Silvia and Andrea are a strong couple who complement one another well. For instance, Silvia has a lot of empathy with others and is very proactive. Andrea has a lot of patience and likes to find a solution that suits everyone. A couple that works as a team has a good chance of managing demands and challenges that can arise when starting a family. We also see that Silvia and Andrea are a couple who learn and obtain information and are not afraid to ask for advice, which is beneficial for resolving the problems that can arise when one is a parent.
您如何看待申請人應對養育子女的要求和挑戰的能力？西爾維亞和安德里亞是一對相得益彰的堅強夫妻。例如，西爾維亞（Silvia）對他人很有同理心，並且非常積極主動。 Andrea 很有耐心，喜歡找到適合每個人的解決方案。作為一個團隊工作的夫妻有很好的機會應對組建家庭時可能出現的需求和挑戰。我們也看到，Silvia 和 Andrea 是一對善於學習、獲取資訊、不害怕尋求建議的夫婦，這有利於解決為人父母時可能出現的問題。

If a couple is applying together, describe their relationship. Silvia and Andrea are a couple who complement one another very well. Silvia is a woman with a lot of energy to get involved in projects she feels are important. Andrea is a man who is calmer, but very inquisitive with regard to finding solutions. They work together really well, which one can see, for instance, in the home renovations they have done together. Silvia and Andrea like culture and art and they love to travel together and discover the history of places (Silvia has also traveled abroad with teenage language students several times as leader). They are also very generous with their time and become involved in local activities.
如果一對夫婦一起申請，請描述他們的關係。西爾維亞和安德里亞是一對相得益彰的情侶。西爾維亞 (Silvia) 是一位充滿活力的女性，能夠參與她認為重要的專案。安德里亞是個比較冷靜的人，但對尋找解決方案非常好奇。他們合作得非常好，這一點可以從他們一起完成的家庭裝修中看到。 Silvia和Andrea喜歡文化和藝術，他們喜歡一起旅行並發現地方的歷史（Silvia也作為領隊多次與青少年語言學生一起出國旅行）。他們也非常慷慨地投入時間並參與當地活動。

If the applicant already has a child, describe how the applicant is as a parent, the relationship between parent and child and what they usually do together. They have no children.
如果申請人已經有孩子，請描述申請人作為父母的情況、父母與孩子之間的關係以及他們通常在一起做什麼。他們沒有孩子。

簡要描述您與申請人的關係。

We met Andrea and Silvia for the first time when they moved to Luleå back in 2017. Andrea started work as a postdoc at LTU and Agatino was working in the same group. During the first few months, we met a number of times to help them familiarise themselves with Luleå and the Swedish system. Naturally, we became friends. In this period, we learned about their previous life and work in Milan and their experience with school teaching in the Italian system. Since we met for the first time, we've spent time together both through work and outside work. Our daughter Helmi has often been part of the activities we have done with Andrea and Silvia. Andrea and Silvia have always been willing to help us, they have taken care of our pet rabbit Lakrits and our garden while we've been traveling.
我們第一次見到 Andrea 和 Silvia，是在 2017 年他們搬到呂勒奧時。在最初的幾個月裡，我們多次會面，幫助他們熟悉呂勒奧和瑞典的體系。很自然地，我們成了朋友。這段時間，我們了解了他們以前在米蘭的生活和工作，以及他們在義大利體系下的學校教學經驗。自從我們第一次見面以來，我們在工作和工作之外都花了很多時間陪伴她。我們的女兒赫爾米經常參加我們與安德里亞和西爾維亞一起進行的活動。 Andrea 和 Silvia 一直願意幫助我們，在我們旅行期間，他們照顧我們的寵物兔子 Lakrits 和我們的花園。

What do you know about the applicants' experience of and contacts with children?
您對申請人與兒童的經驗和接觸了解多少？

They both have had an active role in schools and children's associations in Italy. In our personal view they have good experience of understanding the challenges related to parenthood. Andrea and Silvia have a warm and caring connection and communication with our daughter. Here in Sweden, Silvia's work has included art workshops for children and she has a genuine interest in children's and young people's well-being and education through the arts.
他們都在義大利的學校和兒童協會中發揮了積極作用。我們個人認為，他們在理解與為人父母相關的挑戰方面擁有豐富的經驗。安德里亞 (Andrea) 和西爾維亞 (Silvia) 與我們的女兒有著溫暖、關懷的聯繫和溝通。在瑞典，西爾維亞的工作包括為兒童舉辦藝術研討會，她對透過藝術實現兒童和青少年的福祉和教育有著真正的興趣。

Describe any special parenting skills the applicants have.
描述申請人擁有的任何特殊育兒技能。

They are both patient and careful people. They are a warm couple who can provide the necessary security that a child needs for his/her own development. They are open minded and responsible. They can listen, be open and give people space, both children, young people and adults around them. They both have a high level of education and speak several languages, which indicates their ability and willingness to develop and be able to provide excellent support to a child in a new environment.
他們都是耐心又細心的人。他們是一對溫暖的夫妻，能夠為孩子自身發展提供必要的安全保障。他們思想開放、責任感強。他們可以傾聽、開放並給人們空間，無論是周圍的兒童、年輕人或成年人。他們都擁有高水平的教育水平並會說多種語言，這表明他們有能力和意願發展並能夠在新環境中為孩子提供出色的支持。

How do you view the applicant's ability to manage the demands and challenges of being parent to an adopted child?
您如何看待申請人應對養育子女的要求和挑戰的能力？

They have acquired good experience while teaching in the public school system in Italy. Also, they have been active as volunteers both in Italy and Sweden in community associations that focus on support for children. They have good jobs and a good social network here in Sweden, which makes their position to raise a child very strong, both from a financial and time-related point of view. As they themselves have lived and worked in different countries and societies, they have experience of new and often demanding life situations that a new environment may entail. This experience gives them understanding and a calm attitude to cope with new situations and new people around them.
他們在義大利公立學校系統任教期間獲得了豐富的經驗。此外，他們還在義大利和瑞典的社區協會中擔任志願者，致力於為兒童提供支持。他們在瑞典有很好的工作和良好的社交網絡，這使得他們在撫養孩子方面處於非常有利的地位，無論是從經濟角度還是時間角度來看。由於他們自己在不同的國家和社會生活和工作過，他們經歷了新環境可能帶來的新的、往往要求更高的生活狀況。這段經歷讓他們理解並以冷靜的態度應對周圍的新情況和新朋友。

If a couple is applying together, describe their relationship.
如果一對夫婦一起申請，請描述他們的關係。

They are a very robust couple who have been married for several years. They help and support one another a lot and find it easy to communicate with regard to both their individual needs and common projects.

My name is Hanna Isaksson and I work for Region Norrbotten at the culture department. I live with my partner and my dog and we are expecting our first child, the due date is in March 2023. I got to know Silvia through work, she first took part in a project we ran for newly-arrived Sweden with the aim of helping them enter the cultural industry in Norrbotten. Silvia then became my language trainee and worked with me for six months, during that time we developed a friendship and now we also meet up privately.
我叫漢娜‧伊薩克森 (Hanna Isaksson)，在北博滕地區文化部門工作。我和我的伴侶以及我的狗住在一起，我們即將迎來我們的第一個孩子，預產期是2023 年3 月。一個項目，目的是幫助他們進入北博滕省的文化產業。 Silvia 後來成為我的語言實習生，和我一起工作了六個月，在那段時間我們建立了友誼，現在我們也私下見面。

Describe in brief your relationship to the applicants.

Silvia and I work in the same industry, so we often see one another through work and we help one another with various types of collaboration and project. We also meet up privately for coffee or walks or go to various types of cultural event together.
Silvia 和我在同一行業工作，因此我們經常在工作中見面，並在各種類型的協作和專案中互相幫助。我們也會私下見面喝咖啡、散步或一起參加各種類型的文化活動。

I am expecting my first child now, but I am aunt to three girls. I have also been an extra home through the social services to a 12-year old girl. I worked at a preschool and an after-school centre when I was in my early twenties. My partner and his sister were themselves adopted from Ecuador and of course we have talked a lot about how it was for him to be adopted when he was 4 years old.
我現在正期待著我的第一個孩子，但我是三個女孩的阿姨。我還透過社會服務為一名 12 歲的女孩提供了額外的家。我二十出頭的時候在幼稚園和課後中心工作。我的伴侶和他的妹妹都是從厄瓜多爾領養的，當然我們談論了很多關於他四歲時被領養的經歷。

I perceive both Silvia and Andrea to be very calm and sympathetic people with empathy and warmth. They nurture their relationships with friends and family.

我認為西爾維亞和安德里亞都是非常冷靜、富有同情心、富有同情心和溫暖的人。他們培養與朋友和家人的關係。他們秩序井然、受人尊敬，並擁有穩定、良好的工作。我認為他們是充滿愛心的人，關心那些在社會上遇到問題的人，例如，如果有人生病了，需要幫助養寵物或購買食物等，他們會提供幫助。

How do you view the applicant's ability to manage the demands and challenges of being parent to an adopted child?
您如何看待申請人應對養育子女的要求和挑戰的能力？

I do not believe that this will be a problem for them, it may even be an advantage that they themselves come from a different culture and have now chosen to settle in Sweden. This means that they understand what kind of culture shocks may arise, questions about one's background, where one comes from and so on. Their calm and methodical manner and the fact that they have teaching experience and are good at explaining things can help the child when explaining origins and adoption.
我不認為這對他們來說是一個問題，甚至可能是一個優勢，因為他們本身來自不同的文化，現在選擇在瑞典定居。這意味著他們了解可能會出現什麼樣的文化衝擊、關於一個人的背景、來自哪裡等等的問題。他們冷靜有條理的態度以及有教學經驗且善於解釋的事實可以幫助孩子解釋出身和收養。

If a couple is applying together, describe their relationship.
如果一對夫婦一起申請，請描述他們的關係。

I perceive that Silvia and Andrea love being together. They are a couple who share interests and who enjoy one another's company. They often attend cultural events together, they have made various trips around Norrbotten to learn more about our history and environment (they probably know more about it than I do), they are both eager to learn new things and like discovering new things. Together, they are calm and respectful towards one another.
我發現西爾維亞和安德里亞喜歡在一起。他們是一對有著共同興趣並享受彼此陪伴的情侶。他們經常一起參加文化活動，他們在北博滕周圍進行了各種旅行，以便更多地了解我們的歷史和環境（他們可能比我了解更多），他們都渴望學習新事物，喜歡發現新事物。他們在一起時表現得很平靜，彼此尊重。

I have mainly followed Silvia during her years in Norrbotten and I see how much she is appreciated in all of the various contexts she is involved in. She is always pleasant and thorough and does her best in everything. I have never heard anyone say anything negative about Silvia. When she came to me for language practice I was impressed at how quickly she learned the language and what courage and decisiveness she showed. If I wanted to begin speaking English to make things easier for her, she always replied in Swedish. She even held lectures in Swedish after only one year of studying it, and although her Swedish was not perfect, she had the courage to challenge herself. I was extremely impressed by her efforts afterwards.
我主要關注西爾維亞在北博滕的歲月，我看到她在參與的各種環境中都受到了高度的讚賞。為。我從未聽過有人對西爾維亞說過任何負面的話。當她來找我練習語言時，我對她學語言的速度以及她表現出的勇氣和果斷印象深刻。如果我想開始說英語以使事情變得更容易，她總是用瑞典語回答。光是學習了一年的瑞典語，她就開始用瑞典語授課，儘管她的瑞典語並不完美，但她卻勇於挑戰自己。她後來的努力給我留下了深刻的印象。

Supplement to the home study report for the spouses Andrea Luciani and Silvia Colombo.
Andrea Luciani 和 Silvia Colombo 夫婦的家庭研究報告的補充。

The Social Welfare Committee of Luleå decided on 31^st January 2024 to give the spouses Andrea Luciani and Silvia Colombo consent to receive a child born abroad, in their home for adoption. The decision was based on a report dated 17^th January 2024.
呂勒奧社會福利委員會於 2024 年 1 月 31 日決定，^同意Andrea Luciani 和 Silvia Colombo 夫婦在家中收養一名在國外出生的孩子供收養。該決定是基於 2024 年 1 月 17 日的^報告。

Andrea Luciani and Silvia Colombo together have a monthly income of SEK 91 700 (USD 8 414) before tax. They pay SEK 22 746 (USD 2 087) in taxes. The tax is compulsory in Sweden and it is used for social insurance for all citizens, such as free schools, free or subsidized medical care, free dental care for children under 19 years old, subsidized child care for municipal day-care etc. The social insurance also provides financial support to those who are ill, disabled, parents and pensioners. All Swedish citizens are given the opportunity to study at university and the education is free of charge and is instead financed by taxes. To finance the cost of living during the study period, the student is entitled to study aid, which is made up partly by student grant and partly by loan.
Andrea Luciani 和 Silvia Colombo 的稅前月收入總計為 91 700 瑞典克朗（8 414 美元）。他們繳納 22,746 瑞典克朗（2,087 美元）的稅。該稅在瑞典是強制性的，用於所有公民的社會保險，例如免費學校、免費或補貼醫療、19歲以下兒童的免費牙科護理、市政日託的補貼兒童保育等。人、父母和退休金領取者提供經濟支持。所有瑞典公民都有機會在大學學習，教育是免費的，由稅收資助。為了支付學習期間的生活費用，學生有權獲得學習援助，部分由學生助學金和部分貸款組成。

Besides the social insurance the couple have also signed accident insurance through their employers. They have signed householders' comprehensive insurance and motor vehicle insurance.
除了社會保險外，夫妻倆還透過雇主購買了意外傷害保險。他們都簽署了戶籍綜合保險和機動車輛保險。

All who are gainfully employed in Sweden participate in a State pension savings plan. The amount of their savings is based upon their wages or salaries. In addition to the State pension savings plan, the couple participate in ITP as well as a private pension savings plan. ITP is a complementary pension plan for salaried employees, the cost of which is defrayed by employers (4.5% of gross salary). The couple contribute SEK 4 000 (USD 367) to their private pension savings plan each month.
所有在瑞典從事有酬工作的人都參加國家退休金儲蓄計劃。他們的儲蓄金額取決於他們的薪水或薪水。除了國家退休金儲蓄計劃外，這對夫婦還參加 ITP 以及私人退休金儲蓄計劃。 ITP是一項針對受薪員工的補充退休金計劃，其費用由雇主支付（佔總薪資的4.5%）。這對夫婦每月向他們的私人退休金儲蓄計劃繳納 4000 瑞典克朗（367 美元）。

Andrea Luciani has a financially stable employer which is a well-established university, while Silvia Colombo is employed by the public body Region Norrbotten, which is the largest employer of the region.
