Description

The Boarding-Out Of Pauper Children In Scotland is a historical book written by John Skelton and originally published in 1876. The book is a comprehensive study of the practice of boarding-out, which was a system implemented in Scotland during the 19th century to provide care for pauper children. Skelton's work provides a detailed examination of the history and development of the boarding-out system, as well as its impact on the lives of the children who were placed in the program. He explores the various factors that led to the creation of the system, including social and economic conditions, and the role of the government in implementing and regulating the program.The book also provides a wealth of statistical data and case studies that illustrate the successes and challenges of the boarding-out system. Skelton examines the various forms of care provided to the children, including foster care, adoption, and institutional care, and discusses the pros and cons of each approach.Throughout the book, Skelton emphasizes the importance of providing a nurturing and supportive environment for pauper children, and argues that the boarding-out system represented a significant step forward in the care of vulnerable children. However, he also acknowledges the limitations of the system and the need for ongoing reform and improvement.Overall, The Boarding-Out Of Pauper Children In Scotland is a valuable historical resource for anyone interested in the history of child welfare and social policy in Scotland, and provides important insights into the challenges and opportunities of caring for vulnerable children.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
