Book excerpt: This book presents an innovative, empirically-supported approach to assessing parenting capacity of parents with learning difficulties that can lead to more humane, fair, and accurate child custody decisions. The authors are leading researchers and practitioners in this field having worked with hundreds of these families. Many professionals working with these families recognize that current parenting capacity assessment approaches are based on outdated and invalid assumptions and methods. This book addresses the unique assessment needs of these families and includes detailed background information, rationales and methods. After a comprehensive literature review, the authors provide a theoretical interactional model underlying their assessment approach. The remainder of the book is devoted to a detailed description of the comprehensive, competence-based parenting capacity assessment method and includes many examples and two case studies. This book is an indispensable resource for all professionals involved with parents who have learning difficulties and their children. Book jacket.
