Abstract

Background of the Study. Childhood is considered one of the most happy periods in one’s life. It is filled with the joys of being loved and the discovery of new experiences. These factors play a big part in the healthy development of one’s personality.There are many children who do not have a chance for this happiness. This may be the result of neglect on their parent’s part or of some unforseen circumstances that disrupted their family life. What has happened to these children, who are separated from their families, specifically those children who are placed at the Little Flower House of Providence?
