Entry #4 Foster Care in America

Foster care
Children in foster care is a growing issue throughout america many children are looking for homes and someone to love and care for them unconditionally, but yet we have all these people not wanting to adopt. According to "ABC News" About 40,000 infants are placed in foster care every year. Each one of those kids are fighting to live throughout the system. while most of the children left in foster care or dcs are teenagers that end up staying with dcs until the day of there 18th birthday. On average, children stay in the system for almost three years before being able to reconnect with there parents if they can get that chance. There are so many people today trying to work out infertility issues when there are people in america having children that cant even raise them this is a growing issue that should be addressed. I know that many children in the foster care system just want a loving a caring home that could be given to them. I have seen a case where some foster parents just become foster parents to be able to get the check from dcs each month and it turns out they were bad placements to begin with. we can all held this growing issue by good people helping to raise the children in foster care by getting them out of the system and going through trainings, to make a huge imact in others lifes.
