Sharon,
As has already been said, some foster parents aren't qualified or trained to
handle difficult behaviors in the kids. Id's too easy for them to just
throw up their hands and say, "We can't handle it."
Also, social workers have a limited time to get kids home to parents. Some
parents get too many chances with their kids when they can't or won't take
care of them. I agree it's sad and often appalling.
