Abstract: This study tried to clarify what violence means to children in welfare facilities who had been exposed to violence and are currently perpetrating violence. we examined the following two points: (1) What children consider violence to be, and (2) With what intention did they perpetrate violence? we interviewed 29 stuffs working at child welfare facilities and asked them to talk about their most memorable case of child violence. The interviews were recorded with permission, and a verbatim transcript was subsequently prepared, with personal information protected. The transcripts were qualitatively analyzed through coding and categorization, resulting in five categories of how children perceive violence and seven categories of children's intentions to commit violence. These results suggest that violence has unique meanings for children in the midst of a cycle of violence, and that their intentions for committing violence are diverse. In the general discussion, we examined the nature of support based on these characteristics.
