When my wife and I got our foster care license I was astounded by how many resources our state puts towards foster kids after they're put into the foster system: hundreds of dollars a month to the foster parent, life coaches, psychologists, tutors, birthday and Christmas allowances, great medical care. And the main goal is reunification with their family. Meanwhile, before being put in foster care they and their families get no support! I often think about how broken of a system that is. I feel like if half the foster resources went to the families to begin with, then we could avoid a lot of foster care (parental abuse notwithstanding) in the first place! And it's so traumatic taking kids from their moms.
