What do you do if children and families are resistant to social work interventions?
Encountering resistance in social work is not uncommon, especially when working with children and families. It's essential to approach such situations with empathy, understanding that resistance often stems from fear, mistrust, or a lack of awareness about the benefits of interventions. You must navigate these challenges with patience and a strategic approach, ensuring that the families' needs are met while also respecting their autonomy and perspectives.
