Some might say that children who are troublesome or engage in anti-social behaviour can be difficult to believe in. Barnardo’s argues that it is these children who need our support. Most children in trouble are trapped in a cycle of disadvantage. Children who start down a path of bad behaviour can be helped to change direction.
