N2  - This book explores the relationship between cultural values and social service practice in child protection work. It discusses the development of cultural thinking and how this informs an understanding of the world, the reasons why it is difficult to perceive another person with accuracy, and insight into how easy it can be to impose self views on others while attempting to be culturally responsive. The nature of personal and professional cultural thinking and how this impacts on practice is also examined. The beliefs and values within the child care and protection system is explored in relation to its impact on shaping service delivery. Childhood, family cultures, and the culture of sexual offenders are also examined. A culturally reflexive model of child protection practice is outlined to assist in providing more culturally responsive practices
