Summary, etc |
Despite a sustained emphasis that appropriate responses are made to children and families need, recent policy documents express a concern about the high thresholds for receipt of children's services preventing many high- need families from accessing help. Where this is the case, families are liable to have to fall back on their own resources. This raises the question: how do these families, particularly mothers (frequently the primary caregivers), cope? Locus of Control (LoC) has been shown to be a significant factor in the confidence, and capacity, of individuals to respond to their external environment. This article focuses on applicants for children's services who did not meet the thresholds for service receipt, focusing on their coping strategies in the light of the LoC of the woman. The findings show that LoC did have an impact on coping strategies, and, in particular, points to the greater likelihood of avoidance strategies in those with an external Loc and of stress undermining Active coping by those with internal LoC, in the absence of services. These are discussed in the light of prevention, recently conceptually extended to include activities by the families, as well as the provision of services. |
