Abstract
There is an increasing awareness among those who work in the field of residential child care that it is essential to change the character of relationships between residential staff and the families of children in residential group care (Grupper, 1998; Garfat & McElwee, 2004). This is particularly important when it comes to education. In order to obtain a real and meaningful change, it is essential that families are encouraged to take an active part in their children’s lives while they are growing up in residential schools. By involving the parents in the life of the group home, it might provide opportunities for professional staff to empower the parents and help them rehabilitate the relationship between parent and child (Buhler-Niederberger, 1999).
