Description
Introduction Foster carers and adoptive parents are caring for some of the most troubled children in our society. These children have all had to leave their families of origin, most following considerable developmental trauma stemming from the experience of abuse, neglect and family conflict, sometimes accompanied by parental mental ill-health or addiction (van der Kolk, 2005). These children move into foster and adoptive homes with difficult assumptions about the ways families work and with many behavioural strategies in place to manage this experience. Developmentally, the children are often affected by their early experience, leading to problems with physiological, emotional and behavioural regulation, relationship and cognitive difficulties (Kinniburgh et al, 2005; van der Kolk, 2005). The children often appear younger than their chronological age as they become stuck in age-inappropriate response patterns which affect and distort their development (Cairns and Stanaway, 2004).
