Flemish Foster Parents' Satisfaction With Foster Care and Their Extra Support Needs With Parenting
Sponsor: Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Summary
From foster parents' perspectives, this study aims to shine light on the (problem) behaviour children in Flemish foster care have. Secondly, it examines if its prevalence is associated with foster parents' parenting and their satisfaction with several aspects of foster care (i.e., matching, preparation and training, acquainted foster care workers). Finally, foster parents report on their support needs. It is hypothesized that foster parents will report fewer behavioural problems and support needs: (1) the more satisfied they are, (2) the more functional parenting they use. As such, this study gathers knowledge for tailored intervention and might contribute to the literature on breakdown prevention.
