We won't lie to you. There will be challenges. Those children from chaotic backgrounds will have trouble coming to terms with their new situation and may have "learned strategies" for coping with their problems. These can often seem baffling, inappropriate and self-defeating. The child or young person may see you as the immediate solution to their problems but it's just as likely they'll make you work for their trust. At the same time, you'll be helping the child to develop new behaviours and responses to problems. That said, with the right motivation, support and training these challenges are a mountain you CAN climb. We'll be with you every step of the way. And we can promise you the rewards that come with bringing a positive change to a troubled young life are unique and well worth it all!
