Produktbeschreibung
Babies and very young children in care often experience several changes of placement and carer, which can have a negative impact upon their long-term ability to develop secure attachments. Babies and Young Children in Care examines why babies enter care or accommodation and why securing their long-term future can be a lengthy process. It analyses the circumstances, characteristics and experiences of these young children before, during and after being looked after, including reasons for changes of carer and placement disruptions. It looks at how young children are affected by the lack of stability in their lives, and explores the consequences of reunification with their parents after long periods in care. Drawing on interviews with birth parents, carers and social care professionals, the authors trace the complex decision-making process that influences these children's early experiences and the impact this has on their later development and well-being. They offer a clear explanation of the outcomes of services for very young children and signpost messages for practice. This book is a key text for researchers, practitioners, policy makers and social care managers.
Autorenporträt
Harriet Ward was a prominent British writer who was well known for her thoughts and work on South African literature. To complete her literature, she lived in the Cape colony for a few years so that she could understand the basic living standards of the people evolving in the colonial region of Southern Africa. With the help of her vast insights she came across various chapters and concepts delved her to write the book The Cape and The Kaffirs. She was born in 1808 completed her studies in France and later got married to John Ward in London. Initially writing about her father, she went on to write reports of battle and daily life in "Kaffirland," as the British called the part of the Cape Colony that stretched from Kaffraria to Albany. Nevertheless, she had a lot of detractors while writing; some saw her as a propagandist for British imperialism, particularly in light of her nonfiction work about colonial South Africa.
