«Becoming parents as mending the past»: care-experienced parents and the relationship with their birth family

Author

Listed:
  • Mauri, Diletta

Abstract

This paper studies how care-experienced parents, i.e. parents with a looked-after background, represent their relationship with the birth family. This relationship appears to be crucial in the intergenerational transmission of maltreatment and may enable an understanding of the dynamics that mediate its reproduction.
