Session 10/15

Work plan: Things to do before the next session

Please choose one of these topics and make a work plan for it. Choose the topic you find most useful for your current situation.

• Work to make the child feel that it has a secure base and a personal space, and that it belongs in the foster family. How can this be done?
• Make a plan for weekly meetings in the foster family, where behaviour rules are discussed and negotiated with all children and teenagers in the family. How will you do this?
• Foster parents: talk about how people in your social network can find good ways to understand the child and respond to its behaviour. Who will you talk to, and when?

Write down what you as foster parents have discussed and concluded and decide who does what.

Thank you for your interest and good luck with your work until next session!
