Focusing on the experiences of British children living at home 'on trial' with parents or relatives, this book, first published in 1980, examines a significant yet underexplored aspect of child welfare. Based on a study of a sample group, it provides insights into the challenges faced by these children and their families, offering valuable perspectives for professionals in child care. Its timely research fills a gap in the literature, contributing to a better understanding of the complexities surrounding statutory care.
