“A child’s life is so much more than the sum of its parts ‐ and the love a family brings holds everything together. From the very beginning, a child thrives on individual care and attention. A baby quickly forges a bond with loving parents – and because of this bond the brain develops with remarkable speed and complexity. But this picture of childhood can be a fragile one. Conflict and disaster can destroy the foundations of family life… once a child enters an orphanage, a very different picture of childhood can emerge.”
