Vulnerable Children, Vulnerable Families: The Social Construction of Child Abuse

Based on a study conducted in an intervention program for parents of maltreated children, this book examines the well intended but often ineffective efforts of the child welfare system to prevent maltreatment, as illustrated by the experiences of three parents targeted by the state’s child protection agency, and urges more far-reaching policy change to coordinate earlier and more diverse kinds of support for children and families.
