Product Description As they intervene in families to reduce the risk of harm to children, child protection social workers around the worldare confronting increasingly high levels of hostility and aggression from someparents.Investigations into the deaths of children known to social services have accused social workers of failing to use their professional authority to challenge parents. This much needed book analyses public inquiries and serious case reviews to reveal the dynamics of hostility and aggression which contribute to the failure to protect children. These can occur within the office environment and between social workers and parents or their partners.. The book details applied theories of aggression in conjunction with the skills required for dealing with anger, conflict and aggression. A set of tools and reflective exercises assists the application of theory to daytoday child protection practice. This indispensable and practical text is ideal for social work students, practitioners, trainers and academics specialising in child protection. Review The book provides tools and methods to improve child protection/safeguarding practice, which will be of benefit to experienced practitioners, newly qualified social workers, and I think a useful resource for social work educators.
