To help assess the effect of a communicator's perceived background on his credibility, 266 Grade 7 and 8 students were asked to rate a speaker on drug abuse. Half the students were led to believe that the speaker had himself used psychotropic drugs regularly. The others were told he had used no such drugs. E, who was the speaker, was rated on knowledge of subject, ability to communicate, and understanding of young people. Differences in mean ratings given by the two groups did not show statistical significance. The absence of difference was attributed to the apparent disinclination of students to use drugs, and to their perception of E as an experienced case worker.

This constructed narrative inquiry illustrates confluent stories of a young mother, Jenny, charged with child abuse and neglect; her foster care case worker, Rachel; and her therapist, Kathleen. As researchers, we discuss the positions of each person: mother, caseworker, therapist through storied fragments representing what is most important in how they came to understand the process of their year-long work together that led to Jenny's releasing her parental rights. Layering interviews and reflexive writings, we focus on decision-making and voice; about what it means to be a parent, a foster care worker, and a therapist in a community context where parent benefit from services and the child's best interest is a privileged societal discourse.

About 35 per cent of the children are not attending the schools regularly, 72.2 per cent respondents required psycho-social support.
