Working with parents - The practice of working with parents

In this two-part podcast, Donald Forrester, Professor of Child and Family Social Work at Cardiff University and Richard Devine, Consultant Social Worker, join Susan Ridpath, Research and Development Officer at Research in Practice to share their insights into working with parents in child and family social work. Part two starts by further exploring the reasons why a parent may be reluctant to have social services in their lives. What is meant – and importantly not meant - by the term ‘resistance’ and how is understanding resistance useful for practice?
