This book presents in-depth, candid case studies that are designed to allow someone studying child protection to understand the complicated, challenging situations that occur in the field. The contributors cover eight common situations that practitioners face, including working with assessing risk, managing different professional perspectives, and handling uncooperative clients. The detailed analysis they provide will help students understand why particular decisions are made, and how practitioners can overcome similar predicaments at work through reflective practice.
