Book excerpt: The current study seeks to address foster parents' knowledge of a concept known as Emotional Intelligence, which is a person's ability to label and understand one's own emotions, as well as the emotions of others. This study also seeks to understand foster parents' ability to promote Emotional Intelligence and recognize emotions and change in emotions among children. Few studies to date address the emotional needs specific to the foster care population and how foster parents can best support social and emotional development in this population. The study found foster parents' demonstrated the ability to notice change in emotions of their foster children. Additional findings suggest that foster parents who value emotional expression are likely to engage in conversations regarding emotions. Foster parents must have a clear understanding of the value of Emotional Intelligence in order to follow through with behaviors which support Emotional Intelligence.

Book excerpt: The experiences of a child in the foster care system rely heavily on the preparedness ofthe foster parent. For decades, researchers and practitioners have written about the challenges that foster children face while in the foster care system and discussed ways to assist them. This research discusses another way to improve the preparedness of a foster child as they go through the foster care systemimproving the parenting skills of the foster parent using emotional intelligence. The entirety of this study is the analysis and study of this specific research question, What perceived impact can emotional intelligence training (IV) have on how licensed foster parents treat children in their homes (DV)? The researchers hypothesis was If states offered emotional intelligence training for foster parents, then their parenting skills would improve. After using surveys to question foster parents in North and South Carolina, the research concluded that foster parents strongly believed they would greatly benefit from incorporating a comprehensive emotional intelligence training program into the training regimen. The researcher concludes the study by developing a shell emotional intelligence training program aimed to maximize the potential of each foster parent as they care for children in their home.

Book excerpt: The primary objective of the current study was to investigate parental trauma knowledge, empathic response style, and emotional intelligence as correlates of placement stability in foster homes. The study was a retrospective survey study. Foster parents completed a series of surveys, including demographic questions, self-report of understanding of emotions/emotional intelligence, empathic response patterns, and trauma knowledge. Foster parents also reported on child demographics, length of stay for each child placed in their care, and children's externalizing behaviors. Higher levels of foster parent emotional intelligence (EI) trended toward a significant relationship to higher rates of child placement stability. In the subset of parents who had ever requested any removals, foster parental empathic perspective taking correlated with higher rates of child placement stability as did parental trauma knowledge. Foster parent EI significantly moderated the relationship between child externalizing behavior and placement stability that placement stability was highest when parental EI was high and child externalizing behavior was low, while all other combinations of parent EI and child externalizing behavior levels showed higher rates of child removal requests. Results contribute to knowledge of parent/family characteristics that may be important correlates of placement stability in foster care and suggest that parental empathic perspective taking, emotional intelligence/understanding of emotions and trauma knowledge may be important protective factors for the placement stability of children in foster care. While parental strengths like emotional intelligence may be protective against placement disruption when children have relatively low levels of externalizing behavior, future studies should attempt to identify parental resources and contextual factors that may be protective when children have higher levels of externalizing behavior, a common risk factor for placement disruption.

Book excerpt: Abstract "Children learn what they live": Foster Parents' Experiences and the Emotional Curriculum Fina Murphy-Gelderman Foster parents play an important role in the lives of foster children. This study elicited the perceptions of six foster parents about their roles as caregivers to foster children. The value of foster parents cannot be overexpressed, as they have a huge potential to be positive influences in their caregiving roles for foster children. This study was guided by two questions: 1) How do foster parents understand their roles as caregivers for their foster children? and 2) How do foster parents understand their roles in providing a learning environment for their foster children? These questions morphed into one central inquiry exploring how the role of a caregiver is intricately connected to providing a learning environment. The data was analyzed through the lens of curriculum studies using open coding, resulting in emergent themes about foster parents' perceptions about their roles and responsibilities as caregivers as well as challenges that foster parents and foster children experience. Curriculum theorists such as Parker Palmer and John Dewey afford vital insight into the importance of the data, opening up the discussion to notions of emotional curriculum and the need for trauma-informed practices. This study provides rich descriptions of insights from foster parent on the foster care system. Findings suggest that raising awareness of the need to attend to foster children's emotions and history of trauma may be one way forward to providing the best care for children living in foster care Keywords: foster care, foster parents, caregivers, emotional curriculum

This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Care and Commitment is the first book to address the growing issue of foster parent adoption. Meezan and Shireman go directly to the source to find out why some foster parents, when given the opportunity, choose to adopt the children in their care while others do not. Differences between the two sets of families are explored in terms of family characteristics, child characteristics, family-child interaction, and child welfare agency service. The culmination of a two-year study, this book presents the perspectives of both families who have made the decision and their social workers. It affords also the first look at foster parent adoptions that have failed, highlighting the importance of agency service in such adoptions. The book's timely and original findings are crucial for child welfare practitioners and all those interested in permanency planning for children and in the processes of family formation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Power of Perception: Leadership, Emotional Intelligence and the Gender Divide serves as a practical guide to educate women, men and organizations on the barriers that keep women from fully contributing in the workplace. These include differences in leadership style and emotional intelligence, gender bias and stereotypes, breadwinner and caregiver responsibilities, and differences in gender culture which show up every day at work and home. The Power of Perception also explores significant changes in global demographic trends and how our youngest generations are impacting the workplace. The Power of Perception clearly illustrates the reasons that we don’t see more women leading our global businesses. It has nothing to do with women’s skills and competencies and everything to do with perceptions of women as leaders, as workers, as mothers, and as wives. These perceptions have a significant impact on promotion for many women. Perception is reality—and it’s powerful. The Power of Perception provides personal stories of women’s journeys, real-world examples, and is based on the author’s own research as well as that of many others. Every chapter includes practical, easy-to-apply strategies, summary points, and reflection questions to empower women, men, and organizations to fully leverage talent and diversity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All parents experience stress as they attempt to meet the challenges of caring for their children. This comprehensive book examines the causes and consequences of parenting distress, drawing on a wide array of findings in current empirical research. Kirby Deater-Deckard explores normal and pathological parenting stress, the influences of parents on their children as well as children on their parents, and the effects of biological and environmental factors. Beginning with an overview of theories of stress and coping, Deater-Deckard goes on to describe how parenting stress is linked with problems in adult and child health (emotional problems, developmental disorders, illness); parental behaviors (warmth, harsh discipline); and factors outside the family (marital quality, work roles, cultural influences). The book concludes with a useful review of coping strategies and interventions that have been demonstrated to alleviate parenting stress.
