N2  - There is little research about the long-term effects on children that were separated from their parents and moved from Finland to Sweden during World War II. The aim of this study was to capture these now-lifelong reflections, and so questionnaires were sent to 14 potential participants. Ten persons aged 73 − 81 responded. The themes that emerged concerned pride over professional achievements, the pain of separation, and feelings of alienation and loneliness. The informants emphasized the importance of sibling relationships. The conclusion was that the participants, despite the hardships connected with the migration, had successfully lived a good life in Sweden.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
