Sometimes parents will raise the therapist’s anger and antagonism because of their abusive treatment of their children, and the therapists may feel these children and adolescents, especially young girls, would do much better without their parents’ involvement. Nonetheless, it is a fact that the girls’ ties with their parents are far more extensive than the period of time spent in out-of-home placement. These ties will accompany the girls throughout their lives and serve as a model for other relationships as they mature. Therefore, it is crucial to provide the parents with therapeutic care as well as to the adolescent girls, to help in their rehabilitation.
