I think I heard that foster parents in DC earn 800 a month per kid.

One thing I hate about the system is that some of these triflin ass foster parents will warehouse these kids, recycle their school uniforms (even if they are ill-fitting), never send the kid to school with money for field trips, make them eat the free school breakfast, free school lunch, AND stay after school for the snack, and pocket all the damn money.

That money is for THE CHILD!
