Remedial and Surrogate Parenting in the Custodial Arena

Just like footprints, each child is different and age-specific care is required to guide their footsteps. This book provides information for all who provide care for children and supplies basic guidance to make surrogate parenting work. The text is a study and reference guide for foster parents, caregivers in children's homes, as well as a basic guide for parents. There is a relationship between the attitude, knowledge, and behavior of caregivers and the quality of care for growing children. Custodial childcare is not a basket of bad apples that need to be culled from society. Rather it is a cradle of socialization filled with precious fruit of the womb picked from the tree of life to be preserved for society.
