This is a stunning video that I strongly recommend for parents and anyone concerned with how young children develop. You will be moved and educated.
It helps make a strong case for doing all we can to see that children are raised within loving families — but hold on. Family-based care programs take note. This should be taken as a huge challenge for your programs as well. It’s not enough to send children to be raised in families if they will neglected there. The success of kinship care and foster care will hinge on the quality of the families and whether they are properly trained and supported.
