Parental failure and consequences for children. The drug abusing mother whose children are in foster care

Author

Listed:
  • Fanshel, D.

Abstract

The developmental progress of children of drug abusing mothers was assessed in a study of foster children. Cognitive abilities and personal adjustment appeared to be normal but significantly poorer school adjustment patterns were observed. Such children are disproportionately locked into foster care.
