Why you should avoid being a foster parent
By now you may have heard that it’s illegal to have an open relationship with a child under 16, and that the government has put a blanket ban on foster parents caring for children under 18.
The news that foster parents are no longer allowed to have open relationships with their foster children is certainly concerning, but it also highlights the need for more research and understanding of why people are leaving foster care.
In addition to the obvious ethical issues that come with adopting children from foster care, it also raises questions about the safety of the children in the care system.
It also suggests that children in foster care may not be as well-adjusted to the outside world as other children in their care.
This is particularly problematic when it comes to mental health issues, which have been found to be more prevalent among children in open relationships.
