Issue 12 of the goodenoughcaring Journal will reach a computer near you on Saturday, December 15th


The new issue carries riches from Tracey Jarvis who gives an account of her experience of being a key worker in a residential child care setting; in her article Access All Areas - a developmental perspective  Janet Rich stresses the importance of assuring that care leavers have ready access to support resources; Cynthia Cross provides us with an the opportunity to consider the balance between the personal and professional in the care of children and young people;  Noel Howard offers us a review of The Boy at the Gate, the memoirs of Danny Ellis ; a poem from  Michael MallowsThe Casual Cruelty of Positive Intent considers the consequences of moral imperatives and verbal chastisement ;  John Whitwell provides his reflections on the Caldecott Community following its closure ;  John Stein presents a tale about the influence peers have through childhood and adulthood; Mark Smith shares his thoughts about what lies behind the contagion of moral panic that follows in the aftermath of the exposure of child abuse; Tuhinul Islam writes about his doctoral research into residential child care in Bangladesh; Mary Winters furnishes us with an essay which discusses her concerns about the issues relating to child care placements, ethnicity and cultural background.
Articles by Elspeth Maitland and Jeremy Millar have been delayed by bad weather conditions and Norovirus. We are sure good health and clement weather will return and they will appear in our next issue in June, 2013.
