Empowerment of the Children’s Workforce

The Pillars of Parenting empowers workers, within the existing UK childcare workforce; with the psychological theory and research to enable them to understand and respond to the emotional trauma and parental rejection, which many looked after children, have endured. This is achieved by combining the existing carer’s detailed knowledge of the child with the experience, theoretical knowledge and skills of trained chartered psychologists.

If “social rejection is a bit like being knocked on the head with a brick” Prof R Baumeister (2005) p 733

 

Then parental rejection must

be a bit like getting run over

by a bus

We believe that parental rejection is a major factor in the emotional, social and academic problems of children in care.
