商品簡介
Robinson, a clinical psychologist at the children's home that developed the model, and Philpot, a writer and journalist who has written on social care, outline a restorative parenting model meant to help children in residential care recover from developmental trauma from negative parenting due to problems like abuse or neglect. The model works with children who cannot live with their birth families and have not been helped by mainstream foster and residential care, and it involves therapeutic re-parenting by residential workers that focuses on addressing the emotional, behavioral, social, and developmental needs of the child, and the role of people, relationships, and the environment of the residential home in recovery. They discuss the home environment, the role of the therapeutic parent, long-term aspects, the role of schools, and staff consultation with a psychologist and the child's relationship with other professionals.
