42. BS!!!
the money provided for a foster child here in SC averages in the low $300's a month. These kids often come to you with not much more then the clothes on their back. As someone in the process of adopting through foster care I can assure you that the paperwork and scrutiny involved is intensive and daunting and that we will end up spending way more then what is provided.

Of course there are some that do it for the money and short change the kids. Please understand that they are the tiny minority and that it is not that easy to be approved. I am amazed at the amount of time and effort we must go through. Those that slip through the cracks are truly evil and diabolical. It takes a lot of effort.
