The nine true stories in A Time to Bond show how parents have succeeded in bonding with children in foster care during visits. Lessons and worksheets give you the tools to use the stories in a parent support group, parenting education classes, or one-on-one discussions. Parents learn from the true stories of their peers: Sandra Evans: "Through visits, I got to connect with my family in a much different way than I had when I was high. I would play with our kids, read to them and color. These were things I hadn’t done with my children before. I didn’t realize that children need attention in order to thrive." Milagros Sanchez: "In the months before my sons returned home, we had a family conference every Friday. That was a chance for my sons to let out their feelings and ask me any questions they wanted. I would get very emotional, but it helped us get closer." “A Time to Bond is absolutely fantastic! The parents’ stories are so thoughtful and instructive. I learned a lot from them and I’m sure they will help many parents have better visits. It is terrific how A Time to Bond alternates between parents’ stories and worksheets that help parent readers use the storytellers’ experiences to guide their visits. Everyone who is involved with visits in public and private agencies all over the country would benefit from using A Time to Bond. There is nothing like it anywhere.” —Marty Beyer, Ph.D., Developer of Visit Coaching
