Children and the Courts

In my twenty years experience in social work, my particular interest has always been working with children. I know many of you are from children’s homes and I feel very much at home among child-care workers having spent 9 years as social worker at Pallister Girls’ Home which was then an ‘open’ home for Court Committed school girls. I also spent several years in an adoption agency which brought me in touch with unmarried very young girls — children really — and a certain number of older children who were surrendered for adoption.
