[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get how one person can tell another person that they have to take in a child. Or even have such a strong opinion about what is right and wrong in this way. This is in regard to pp who did not take in toddler relative. We are talking about the care of children! In my opinion not willing or feeling incapable of taking in a relative's child/children = disqualified! Think about it.[/quote]

Ok, but what if it means the child goes into the foster care system and lives with strangers?  [/quote]

Foster parents volunteer to take in and take care of children, they get the relationship with the child and the family member does not. Some people will not be able to handle this and in the end will probably take the child in. Some really are not up to the task and so therefore it is perhaps in the child's best interest to be in foster care. "Strangers" can be good people and provide a safe and loving environment. Children separated from their parents have a lot of needs and issues - it is a major responsibility to take on it really should be voluntary. A very complex issue with a lot of variables, i don't think anyone has all the answers. [/quote]
