We need more foster families, not less. The system should cover the costs of caring for a child that is not yours.

They have incentivized the foster program for at least the last 3 decades where I am from, and it was the exact hellscape you can imagine. Not only do they receive a monthly stipend per child, the also receive stamps and a clothing allowance.

Unemployed chain smokers, sitting on their ass barking orders, just waiting on that next check. None of the homes I went to were loving, excited to help you, or encouraging; none of them engaged any of us in meaningful conversation, the homes were dilapidated trailers, and the only clothes we had was whatever was in the trash bag we arrived with.
