RJA #3c: Research Question
- What makes foster care successful?
- How is foster care successful?
- Who has come out of foster care successful?
- Why do some come out strong while others never make it?
- Would foster care be more successful if they took a closer look at what was working?
- How many people have come out successful compared to not so successful?
- How many go down the wrong path? Become violent?
- Is the system flawed?
3. I am writing to defence attorneys and people against foster care. Their main interest is to blame the system and only focus on its flaws. My purpose in writing on this is to prove them wrong and show them just how much the system is working.
5. I would need to define "successful" better. I know foster care isn't all amazing and perfect, but there are tons of good things they do any thousands of kids they help that just get looked over when one kids makes the wrong choices.
