ABSTRACT

Cast your mind back to that glimpse of 6-year-old Janice's story in Chapter 1. Imagine that the outcomes of love and care could be measured by the amount of public money that has been spent on adults trying to meet her needs during the past two years. The outcome of all this is far from something we might call well loved or well cared for. Nobody has stuck with Janice, and she has yet to ®nd a safe place to call home.
