متن يادداشت
What happens to looked-after children in the longer term? This book analyses the outcomes of a large-scale study of foster children in the UK. It includes individual case studies and draws extensively on the views of foster children themselves. The authors examine: why children remain fostered or move to different settings (adoption, residential care, their own families or independent living); how the children fare in these different settings and why; what the children feel about what happens to them. Other important issues covered include the support given to birth families to enable children.
