Children have a basic human right to be free of abuse and
maltreatment. The late Dr. John Pardeck's Children's Rights: Policy
and Practice, Second Edition comprehensively explores the latest
legal, psychological, sociological, policy, and child advocacy
issues dealing with children's rights. Essential issues are clearly
discussed involving children at home, in school, in foster care,
and in residential facilities. This new edition of The Haworth
Social Work Practice Press classic examines the practical and
ethical issues inherent in balancing a child's right to
self-determination against the same child's need to be protected.
Children's Rights: Policy and Practice, Second Edition delves deep
into the causes of abuse and neglect and offers help for families
at risk. Techniques are presented for case and cause advocacy, as
well as venues for family and individual therapy. Other discussions
address the role and function of child protective services and the
juvenile justice system, a review of effective social policy to
protect and care for children, family health and children's rights
issues, and children's rights in schools and day care facilities.
This essential exploration includes extensive references and notes,
a list of Web sites, and a comprehensive glossary of influential
legal rulings focusing on children's rights. Children's Rights:
Policy and Practice, Second Edition includes over 100 pages of new
and updated material on: new rulings of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) that have implications for children's rights
legal case studies an overview and analysis of the Leave No Child
Behind Act children's rights and school violence an expanded
discussion on practice interventions focusing on various approaches
for helping children adjust to substitute care an expanded
examination on advocacy and children's rights, with emphasis on
legal case studies as a tool for enhancing the rights of children
Balancing theoretical considerations, solid information, and
practical advice, Children's Rights: Policy and Practice, Second
Edition is an essential resource for child welfare workers,
attorneys, educators, students, parents, and social workers.
