The purpose of this study is to clarify, from the perspective of intergenerational transmission, the passing down of the harsh experiences of war orphans, many living without shelter in the Ueno Station area of Tokyo during the decade following the end of World War II. Therefore, this study will examine the historical Documents of Aiji no Ie (House of Children), the 80-year, 100-year, and 120-year histories of the Tokyo Metropolitan Foster Home (Youiku-in), and the Monthly Report of the Tokyo Metropolitan Foster Home (Youiku-in). In addition, to supplementing these records, we compared and verified them with publications on War orphans. As a result, we found that many of the war orphans who were interned at Aiji no Ie and the Tokyo Metropolitan Foster Home (Youiku-in) suffered hardship because of the postwar turmoil, and, even many years later, many had difficulty telling their families about their past because of the harshness of their lives. Many do not tell their families about their experiences and take them to their graves. Therefore, to create a symbiotic society in which children's rights are protected within the context of family and community ties, this study examined the concept of intergenerational succession, which refers to the passing on of negative and harsh experiences as an intergenerational buffer.
