Bridges Workshops B315 Parenting Someone Else's Child Ann Stressman wrote this book after hearing Dr. Ruby K. Payne speak about the hidden rules of economic class, combining that perspective with her two decades of personal experience with foster care agencies and the special children needing care. The result is a "nothing can surprise me" compilation of very helpful and enlightening approaches to hundreds of the parenting situations that arise. Dr. Payne contributed a chapter in the book on how to help children in school, and Stressman includes information for grandparents and adoptive parents as well. A wealth of information for parents told with humor and grace by a person who has fostered more than 100 children. Audience: Foster parents and associated individuals.
