Persuasive Essay On Foster Care
Most Foster Care children grow up to have behavioral and attachment issues because of
the lack they are missing out from the biological parents. The question that arrises is, “Should
children that are in the Foster Care system be eligible to be reunited with their biological parents
or should they remain in the system until they have reached the legal age to make their own
decisions. Although, to some, this may be an extremely tough and emotional decision, but I feel
that Children who are put in Foster Care, should only be reunited with their families depending
on the situation, because some situations are completely different and it only takes for parents to

Yes, the parent may have left due to a mental health reason. However, if they haven’t addressed their illness by seeking help they shouldn’t be allowed to reenter the child’s life. If their mental health was the reason behind them leaving they need to pursue help. They need to get help for themselves, the people around them, and the child. If they are still struggling with mental illness and trying to reenter the child’s life on a whim there needs to be some form of intervention. The parent needs to receive proper help before coming back into the child’s life. By allowing reentry without proper help the parent is a danger to themselves, a danger to the child, and putting the child’s mental health in jeopardy. I think if a parent is wanting to reenter a child’s life it needs to be for good. Popping in and out of a child’s life isn’t benefitting anyone involved. This argument like all the other ones has two very sticky sides to it. This “gray” area needs to be carefully addressed and each situation needs to be well researched and handle accordingly while working with our future clients. These are just a few examples to both sides of the argument
