Abstract
What model of “family” do social workers carry around in their heads? How does this influence their behaviour in relation to, say, single mothers? Through identifying the difficulties experienced by women who are single mothers, the author challenges social workers to reflect on the value judgments they pass and the expectations they hold of this client group.
