Visitation is one of the most important parts of being a foster parent. They are often court ordered, so it is a requirement for us to help facilitate.
Parent visits can be hard on kids for a variety of reasons. In this video I walk through some of those situations and some considerations on what may help support the child and what may not help through. I cover:
- When a parent is not visiting and their child is missing them
- When a parent no shows a visit
- When a child doesn't want to attend a parent visit
- When there are elevated behaviors after the visit
How do you support visits in your home? Let me know in the comments!
