This modality emphasizes that change and dysfunction lie within the family structure. This theory assumes that Tracey’s foster family and biological family can solve their own problems with professional support and guidance. Unlike CBT, by identifying the foster family’s strengths, the social worker can build upon these strengths so that the family develops new skills to handle Tracey’s school transition and immersion into the new family system.

These attachment issues may restrict the child from moving forward in their lives and excelling in the new environment provided (Robin). The lack of stability in the system is only setting up the children up for failure, according to Stone, “we treated foster children as if they were our own, yet many of them never felt as if they were.” It is difficult for young children and adolescents to comprehend the separation of their parents let alone the process of moving to multiple foster homes while under the guardianship of the state.

Parents also have to be aware of problems post adoption. Children are often asking many questions, such as “ Why did you chose to adopt me”, or “ Did my birth parents not love me?”. The role of an adoptive parent is rewarding, however it can be difficult. Children also often wonder why their parents left them.
