Depuis 2007, le nombre d'enfants étrangers proposés à l'adoption par l'intermédiaire de l'Agence française de l'adoption (AFA) évolue à la baisse : c'est aussi le cas pour les organismes autorisés à l'adoption (OAA) en France et les opérateurs en adoption internationale partout dans le monde. À cette évolution quantitative correspond une modification du profil des enfants, dont une part croissante sont des enfants dits « à besoins spécifiques ». Cet article vise à présenter le profil sociodémographique des parents français et de leurs enfants provenant d'autres pays d'Europe adoptés par l'intermédiaire de l'AFA entre 2007 et 2010.
Les résultats sont issus de l'exploitation statistique d'une des bases de données de cette agence. Deux caractéristiques majeures émergent de l'analyse du profil sociodémographique de ces parents adoptants : ils sont plus âgés et plus souvent célibataires que les autres parents adoptifs. Si les femmes célibataires se voient proposer davantage d'enfants dits « à besoins spécifiques », elles les refusent plus fréquemment, en raison vraisemblablement d'un accompagnement approfondi des familles : en tant que service public, l'Agence dispose d'une équipe composée d'un médecin et d'une psychologue exerçant à temps plein.

L'alignement des comportements des jeunes femmes et des jeunes hommes en matière de consommation d'alcool, notamment la consommation massive ponctuelle, est apparu comme un recul des stéréotypes de genre, plus particulièrement en raison de leur visibilité dans l'espace public. Néanmoins, les stratégies des alcooliers, comme les campagnes de prévention nationales dans les pays les plus concernés, semblent reproduire les normes genrées, en mettant en exergue une responsabilité plus importante des jeunes femmes quant aux conséquences. Après un bref état de la question du binge drinking et de son développement aujourd'hui, les auteures analysent ces différents aspects.

International audience ; AbstractBackgroundIn France, since 2007, there is a compulsory warning recommending abstinence during pregnancy on every container of alcohol. Awareness of this warning, which consists of a small pictogram, is unknown. The aim of this study was to assess awareness of the warning and risk perceptions about prenatal drinking in pregnant and postpartum women.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was carried out by telephone five years after the introduction of the warning label. A total of 3603 pregnant or postpartum French women participated. A quota sampling method was used to ensure the sample reflected the population. Multivariate analyses examined the characteristics associated with knowledge of risks and with awareness of the warning label.ResultsThe warning label had been noticed by 66.1% of women and 77.3% of drinkers. Of those who had noticed the warning, 98.6% thought that it suggested abstinence. Overall, 40.8% of the women thought that spirits were more harmful than wine or beer, and 8.9% thought that drinking beer was recommended for lactation.ConclusionAwareness of the warning is high but knowledge about the risks associated with wine and beer is poor.Practice ImplicationsFuture information campaigns should educate women about standard drinks and their pure alcohol equivalent. They should emphasize the risks associated with drinking during breastfeeding.
