- catalog abstract "The vulnerability of children becomes tragically apparent when they are neglected and abused by those persons most intimately responsible for their well-being. When parents are judged incapable of adequately providing for the critical needs of a child, the responsibility for determining "the best interest" of the child falls to the community legal system. With compassion and practicality, this book looks at the complex issues surrounding these decisions and discusses the challenges faced by people involved in providing the resources these special children need to anticipate a future with hope and confidence.".
