Understanding Parent Blame
Following and supporting the work of Luke Clements of Leeds university. Families who have lived through parent blame already know why this work is so important.
The challenge is helping professionals understand it too.
Because the deepest learning does not come from textbooks.
Families who have lived through parent blame already know why this work is so important.
The challenge is helping professionals understand it too.
Because the deepest learning does not come from textbooks.
It does not come from lectures.
It comes from walking alongside families.
It comes from seeing the barriers.
And it comes from recognising what families already know – how lives can be better, how lives can
be transformed – if only we are supported, not blamed.
But too often, that is not the case.
Too often, interventions fail – not because of parents – but because they are poorly designed,
impossible to access or never followed through.
And when they fail, the finger of blame points straight back at families.
