Voting at 16 – Lessons for the Future from the Scottish Referendum
The 2014 Referendum on Scottish independence raised many issues about the future of Scotland. It also produced an innovation as regards the electoral process by making 16 years the minimum age of participation. This article examines issues surrounding the voting age and draws on a schools-based study, which shed light on teacher and pupil opinion about this lower than usual threshold for voting. It is also concerned with how schools cover the tea…
Professionals' perceptions of the rocky routes to successful outcomes for young people in a children's residential school

An evaluation of an independent children's residential school in S cotland provided a rare opportunity to analyse and compare the views of different kinds of staff about desirable outcomes…

Adoption for looked after children
The life and work of John Triseliotis
John Triseliotis died on 29 September 2012, aged 83. He was a pioneering figure in the field of adoption and fostering whose work and policy influence will benefit social workers, researchers and others involved in adoption and child welfare for many years to come. In addition to his wider influence, John regularly reviewed books for this journal and was always very willing to comment on submissions, most recently a study of illegal practices in …
The Perspectives of Young Men and Their Teenage Partners on Maternity and Health Services During Pregnancy and Early Parenthood
This study discusses young couples’ interactions with maternity and health services paying particular attention to men’s perspectives. Findings are based on research conducted in Scotland with men (aged 16–25) and their teenage partners (aged 16–19). Most young men were very involved in their child’s life and provided support and care to their partner during pregnancy and in early parenthood. Men often felt excluded or judged when accessing servi…

The Impact of Poverty on Children and Young People’s Use of Services
This article describes a qualitative study exploring the impact of poverty on children’s access to and use of services, which took a comparative approach to gather the views of children from more and less affluent households. Findings suggest affordability and related factors including limited mobility constrained service use for less affluent children, resulting in cumulative missed opportunities. However, extended family, friends and agencies f…
Policy Change under Devolution
Children's policy has emerged from the shadows of family and education policy over the last decade throughout the UK. The decade has also seen political and policy transformation, with the change of government from Conservatives to New Labour in 1997 and the latter's delivery on its promise of devolved administrations. Devolution has accompanied claims and attempts to move from ‘government to governance’, to recognise and support partnerships and…
Oh, what a tangled web we weave
It is not uncommon to explore the views of parents and children in qualitative research with families. Yet the implications and challenges of a multiple perspective approach often remain at a relatively taken‐for‐granted level. In this article we draw on our experience across a range of qualitative interview‐based projects, focusing in particular on two case studies, to illustrate the practical working out of the challenges posed by multiple pers…
The needs and strengths of unaccompanied asylum‐seeking children and young people in Scotland
Unaccompanied asylum‐seeking children seeking refuge in safer parts of the world have a wide range of needs. This paper discusses the main needs of unaccompanied minors drawing upon the views of service providers who work with or for unaccompanied asylum‐seeking children and young people in Scotland, as well as the perspectives of unaccompanied minors themselves. The complexity of the children's needs is explored with a framework considering thei…
Pre-flight experiences and migration stories
Much work about transnational migration and mobility overlooks the active role of children in such processes and experiences. This paper counters the omission from the literature by exploring the pre-flight experiences and migration stories of unaccompanied asylum-seeking children in Scotland. In doing so, we demonstrate that unaccompanied minors experience a range of traumatic situations in their countries of origin including, the death or perse…

More sinned against than sinbin? The forgetfulness of critical social policy
Children, young people and social inclusionParticipation for what?
This book asks how far and in what way social inclusion policies are meeting the needs and rights of children and young people. Leading scholars write from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines including social policy, education, geography and sociology. The book critically examines the concepts of participation and social inclusion and their links with children and childhoods and considers the geography of social inclusion and exclusion. It e…
Children, Young People and Social Inclusion
This book presents a novel interpretation of the nature, causes and consequences of sex inequality in the modern labour market. Employing a sophisticated new theoretical framework, and drawing on original fieldwork, the book develops a subtle account of the phenomenon of sex segregation and offers a major challenge to existing approaches.

Forty Years of Research, Policy and Practice in Children's Services
by Nick Axford, Vashti Berry, Michael Little and Louise Morpeth (eds) Chichester : Wiley , 2005 ISBN 0470012196 , 224 pp , £65 (hb ) Books such as this, which are written in honour of an individual, need to be judged in at least two ways. Does the work form an appropriate tribute to the dedicatee? Is it worth reading in its own right? On the whole this volume succeeds on both counts. The editors have made considerable and creditable efforts to pr…
The European Union's Emissions Trading Scheme
This paper focuses on potential implications from the introduction of the European Union's Emissions Trading Scheme in January 2005 (EUETS) for defined ‘point sources’, or stationary installations, in the energy and manufacturing industries. This Scheme is expected to become integrated with international emissions trading from 2008 within the framework of the Kyoto Protocol, following the implementation of that agreement in February 2005. The pap…

Everybody needs good neighbours
This paper presents details of a largely qualitative evaluation of an intensive multi‐method Project, with a residential component, which aims to help families facing eviction to overcome their housing‐related difficulties. The families served by the Project had a host of other problems related to parenting, with child care and protection issues, addictions and mental health difficulties figuring prominently. Just over half the referrals came fro…
Support services for vulnerable families with young children
Preventive services for young children and their families have a long tradition at the interface of health, education and social work (Tizard et al. 1976; Holman 1988; Smith 1999). In the last 10 years those linked to social work services have largely been re-conceptualized in the UK as ‘family support’, though the precise meaning of that term remains somewhat elusive (Canavan et al. 2000; Higgins 2000). Services targeted on families with very yo…

Partnership Reviewed
The concept of partnership with birth parents has been one of the key principles to inform British child welfare policy and practice in the last decade. Malcolm Hill focuses on the research evidence in the UK to examine in what ways and to what extent child welfare agencies, particularly local authorities, have worked towards co-operation with parents in relation to family placements. He discusses the implications of the research evidence under r…
Family Policy in Scotland
Family policy now has greater prominence in UK politics than ever before. These policies are developing in the context of major constitutional change across the UK, which has the potential for significant policy divergence. Devolution has generated greater interest in Scottish family policy, and how its policy processes have been reconfigured. New Scottish legal and policy initiatives with a family focus have emerged from both Westminster and Hol…

Payments for Adopted Children-Right or Wrong
Recent changes in the law have made it possible to pay adopters in certain circumstances for the upkeep of their children. This is a policy change which has been controversial since it challenges values concerning not only the nature of adoption but also the boundaries between State and parental responsibility. It also represents a significant extension of local authority powers with regard to income maintenance. This raises issues of equity in r…

The role of social networks in the care of young children
From birth, children develop, play and work within extensive social networks; yet little systematic research has been carried out to examine these relationships. This article summarises findings about the network relationships of young children from a study undertaken to explore the diverse ways in which their parents made childcare and babysitting arrangements. The different experiences of the children were found to be closely linked to parental…
The place of counselling in social work
There is much confusion about the meaning and applicability of counselling in relation to social work. At one extreme, virtually all direct work with clients has been described as counselling, whilst others regard counselling as a specialist service for which social workers need to refer people elsewhere. In this article an attempt is made to clarify the position. We suggest that counselling plays an important part but only a part in social work,…

The early history of Scottish child welfare
There is a growing interest in the history of childhood and child care. This article brings together from disparate sources some of the details and themes concerning the emergence and development of public and voluntary child welfare in Scotland. Particular attention is given to residential and foster care arrangements under the Poor Law and to the influence of ‘philanthropic’ individuals and organisations. Comparative references are made to the …
The recent history of Scottish child welfare
During this century, the main features of child care policy in Britain have been the creation of a separate system of juvenile justice, the extension of state responsibilities for child protection and substitute care, a growing emphasis on foster care in preference to residential care, and increased professionalism and co‐ordination of services. This article, the second in a two‐part series, begun in issue 5(2) looks particularly at differences i…
