There are many challenges that face children in residential care. Among those challenges is the little or no interaction between the children in residential care and their biological family. This book investigated if biological family involvement in the lives of children in residential care had any effect on the children's development while they were in care. This book is a comparison between children with biological family involvement and children without any biological family involvement. Child- care practitioners, researchers and anyone interested in child development will probably benefit a great deal from reading this book.
