    Why not all the costs? They are their kids, why should we pay for them if they can? Only when they are unable to pay should we have to put our hands in our pockets. Imo

    This seems to be for voluntary care, rather than court ordered.  

    This will include situations such as a single parent with no support system going into hospital for a while, situations where a parent is worried about their rebellious, violent teenager’s effects on their younger kids, etc.

  3. Most people who have had their kids removed are degenerate scum and/or drug addicts. How the fuck are they going to contribute financially to the upkeep of their children? This has to be a wind up.

    Edit: I didn’t read the article as it wasn’t linking but I went direct to the website. Now I have, I understand that it’s not referring to the types of parents I referred to originally (who are the types most likely to have had their children removed in my experience of dealing with LAC).
