Abstract

In this chapter, we reflect together on the unfolding lockdowns in England. This reflection is presented as a conversation between foster parent (Fiona) and young person (Cuong), exploring the dynamics of care that marked that time period. Through our conversation we are able to point out the multidirectionality of the care we both gave and experienced during these times.
