Emotional Abuse of Children draws upon important studies and findings to summarize essential information about this complex and disturbing form of maltreatment that can damage self-esteem, affect adult relationships, and even influence one's health. Although emotional or psychological abuse of children can be difficult to document, Royse describes behaviors and symptoms that identify emotional abuse, points the reader to instruments for assessing the problem and offers explanations as to why abusers lash out and hurt children. Designed to prepare students for practice in the childe welfare field, the book also provides helpful information about the process of intervening and treating emotional abuse.

It's been thirty years since former flames Alex and Jason last saw each other.

But as they flirt with reigniting their passion - even if just for one night - will the march of time get in the way?

A powerful play about family and forgiveness, following a woman after her release from prison. Premiered at the National Theatre.

A play written for young actors that asks: is the gulf between the young and old as wide as it feels, or are we fundamentally the same inside whatever age we are?
