DESCRIPTION
A look at foster care in pop culture. Most children's stories have as the main character an orphan. Includes a quick talk on the social difficulties linked through numerous studies to fatherlessness. (Note: this is my first upload to slideshare; the Keynote without builds, notes, or explanations seems weak.)TRANSCRIPT
