Children in Foster Care

Many children and young people are under foster care system. Foster care is a system in which minors are placed in a ward, collective housing, or private residence of a state-approved caregiver called "foster parent." Child placement is usually done through government agencies or social welfare organizations. Imagine yourself. Even others have parted from your family. Tears will flow down to your cheek with a look confused in his face.

There are hundreds of thousands of foster children in the United States. The proportion of physical, developmental and mental health problems in raising these children is too high (problem). Most of these problems are caused by the lack of attachment of foster parents. These children had nothing to do with foster parents because there was not time for new homes. Some foster parents think that they are willing to keep their children when they need it, but some are selfish and participate in the program

In the United States, about 500,000 children are foster parents. African-American children account for two-thirds of foster parents and are growing longer than normal children. Approximately 30% of foster children have emotional, behavioral, or developmental problems, and the average age of foster child is 10 years old. The number of children taking care of the outdoors is huge. According to the American Children's Welfare Federation (CWLA), in 2006, the national average in each province was 9,993, the median national value was 6,803. There are 92,344 foster children in California state and it is the largest in Jeonju. Foster parents in Wyoming State The minimum number of children is 1,209.

Recently, researchers began to study attachment of foster child. More than 500,000 foster children are raised in the United States (Child Defense Foundation, 2001). Most of these children are entering foster care facilities without a secure attachment. Foster families of many children often change when they are hospitalized (Smith, Stormshak, Chamberlain, & Whaley, 2001). Although attachment problems can lead to confusion of families, interruption of foster parents may also cause affection problems. Others concluded that the care of the institution may have the same devastating influence on affection (Johnson, Browne, & Hamilton-Giachritsis, 2006). In any case, the child welfare system does not pay much attention to affection problems.
