Glad to hear it wasn't just me in tears! At first they were just for poor little Georgina, but then for her mother too!
The mother had clearly never really wanted Georgina to go into care as she made a huge effort to follow the advice of the behaviour expert, even though it was very hard going for her. Being able to show affection to her child was a breakthrough for them both emotionally and it was so lovely.
I too wish that parenting classes (throughout the different stages of childhood) were as common and thought of as necessary like antenatal classes. After all, if you get things wrong at the birth, that is just 48 hours - what comes next is years and years of being a parent!
