Interior text pages are flawless. The author views residential treatment as a transition stage that children and their families may need; his model for treatment centers around the idea of the rite of passage. This book does not advocate a particular model of therapy over another; rather, it espouses an approach to treatment that is solution-focused and that can fit into any existing program. These ideas rely more on changes in attitude than on changes in the ways that programs operate. Hospital staff and medical team are encouraged to keep their eyes on enhanced competence of families and children and not get bogged down in rigid program rules. Durrant reviews the meanings that families and children commonly attribute to residential placement. In this way, he explores the notion of creating a different context for placements- one of transition, growth, and experimentation with new behavior, not one of cure or problems. He then considers various aspects of the residential process from the point of view of transition and competence-how to see discipline as a way of conveying new information; dealing with violent behavior; helping parents to see things differently and to feel more involved, and the use of ritual and celebration. Included are case examples and ideas from more than a dozen different residential programs throughout Australia and North America. Many families struggle with residential placement. With humor and compassion, Durrant shows how this competence framework can make everyone-from kids and parents to therapists and staff-a winner.
