Foster care training is not too challenging, and includes fairly normal inspection of the house for safety purposes. It also comes with a lot of help for setting up food benefits, Healthcare, and so on. It's no more arduous than parenting a child with a minor health problem, and I've done both now. And it protects the child from exploitation. Also the in-home care and coaching that social workers give to at risk parents before they consider placing a child in foster care is quite extensive. Foster parents are regularly told that they are a last resort, and any family member do over them. Unfortunately, many parents who lose custody of their children exhaust their support structure long before the state intervenes, so they aren't likely to find help from family.
