http://www.rainbowkids.com/ArticleDetails.aspx?id=423

This article is like a guidance for parents who have adopted children who have previously institutionalised and stating how to help them attach and grow into a healthy normal child.

Many other organizations such as Childline, social services, NSSPC have being founded by the goverment to help children who have being institutionalised but also those who have being abused.

This article explains abit about effects of privation and meternal deprevation. It also focuses on the study of 'Genie' by Curtis. This study shows the extremes of privation and how it can effect the child's growth.

study 2: Keith E Rice - Romanian orphanes

This is also another good study that would be useful because Rice focused on how instutionalisation can be good or bad depending on the conditions also he focused on separation and how institutions can cause maternal deprevation which will link into my case sudy on on Genie.

Study 1 : into Instituionalised Children

Jill Hodges and Barbara Tizard (1989)
Social and Family Relationships of Ex-institutional Adolescents

This study is important to what i am trying to find out because Hodges and Tizard conducted a longitudinal study on children who have being instutionalised and some got adopted but many stayed in the instutional and others went back to their orginal parents. They compared how well these children grew up and attached.
