Being removed from one's home is traumatic for children -- even when the home itself is traumatizing. Children may find it extremely difficult to trust their foster parents -- or anyone else -- and their difficulty in trusting others may be especially severe depending on the conditions they have been exposed to.
The harm from dislocation that a foster child feels can be mitigated if foster parents and social workers are attentive to the dynamics of attachment. Providing an environment in which children can form secure attachments is one of the most valuable things that caregivers can provide children. (This is of course true for both children at home and in foster care.) But it can be very difficult for caregivers "to anticipate, respond to and interpret the child's attachment behaviour."
Caregivers without secure attachments with others, may also find it difficult to respond to a child in such a way that will lead to the formation of a secure attachment.
Having a caregiver who provides consistent, responsive care helps children to learn to recognise the nature of their own emotions, and to regulate their own behaviour and emotional states. Through experiencing responsive and sensitive caregiving a child also develops social competencies, empathyand emotional intelligence, and learns how to relate to other people and understand what to expect from them. When a caregiver is sensitive to a child's emotional needs and responds positively, this helps the child to develop a sense of being loved and lovable. This is how children learn that they will be able to rely on others for help in times of trouble later in life. Children are better able to cope with traumatic experiences when their earlier experiences are of being safe and protected.
The above passage both describes one of the key duties of caregivers...

The blame emanates in the form of unexpected or negative social responses from the mental health, legal, medical professionals. This negative response can

The true spirit and meaning of the amendments, as we said in the Slaughter-House Cases (16 Wall. 36), cannot be understood without keeping in view the history of the times when they were adopted, and the general objects they plainly sought to accomplish. At the time when they were incorporated into the Constitution, it required little knowledge of human nature to anticipate that those who had long been regarded
