Did you know siblings are often separated when put into foster care? One CPS worker told me it's just the way it's done, they are seperated (full stop)

--that ain't trending though, and after we've stopped Trump, it still won't be. But that's nothing to think about, this is merely a distraction from what's really important, stay focused, fight the good fight.

I'd suggest said worker was 'aving a lend of you, g'uvner.

Not in the UK it isn't - for 'normal' fostering anyway. There has been a policy to do all you can to keep siblings together since the early 80s. If you can't for practical reasons (foster parents are in short supply), then arrangements are made for frequent contact.

Oh, that's just swell. I'm sure we've got something like that on paper somewhere too. But unlike the great UK siblings here are often split up.

I remember my cousins being in seperate homes. They still managed to hang out and be with their mom too though. But they were teens at the time. I never did ask what happened to their younger sister, and they never brought her up. :dunno:

Why are they splitting them up? What a dumb policy. Your cuntry is fucked.

When I was a children and families social worker foster care was something we dealt with all the time. Foster parents get approved for certain types of fostering - short term and long term and also for numbers - i.e. single children or up to five or six on occasion, depending on their circumstances and preferences.

Foster places were always in very short supply - it can be a tough job given the usually unhappy and disturbed kids you get - and sometimes you just had to take what was available. If at the end of the day it meant having to split siblings up (rare here as I said), well so be it. You had to place a kid who was without a home as pretty much the highest priority you had. I remember very well being on the phone under intense pressure to get something sorted out at 7 on a friday night with options running out.

I assume the system in the USA is not wildly different.

Horrible job!

Yep, my understanding is that options are limited, and for some it's from the frying pan into the fire.

But that's not really my point. I'm pissed off at this trendy politics bullshit, and the polarizing insanity having its day.

What's wrong with the workhouse? Healthy, useful work in a strict Christian environment, that's what they need.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

This is what the author is talking about right here.



https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co ... a-44580964
US President Donald Trump has hosted the relatives of victims killed by illegal immigrants amid outrage over the separation of migrant families.

"Your loved ones have not died in vain," he told the group of so-called Angel Families at the White House.

Mr Trump has faced global condemnation for the US immigration policy that has seen more than 2,000 migrant children stripped from their families.
There's no line he will not cross and still no one is putting an end to him. Everyone's just standing aside and gawking.
