Role change (stage 6)
Role change
Help the partner to see what things will, may and won't change. Here the 'mother' becomes the 'father' or visa versa
State of change: Maintenance
Interventions - Here the person can be very open or resentful towards taking on new roles and responsibilities. The partner may resent the prisoner 'who looks better than they have in years' while 'the partner has to do everything'
During this period the child may appear to have adjusted. However, more severe behaviours may surface, as expressions of the emotions repressed during the more chaotic changes
