Do you trust foster homes? In Australia a 14 year old girl was raped by her foster brother and murdered by her foster father later for cover up.

Segilola Salami (segilolasalami) | 405 comments wow that's really sad . . . I think the point the guests were making is that a lot of abuse occurs in foster homes. hence it is important for parents to make plans for what they would like to happen in case something happened to them. one mentioned getting a notarised letter if you would like a friend to take in your kids. would that suffice where you are?

I feel really sorry for such unloved kids. I don't have a solution but I do know that odds are great. Pedophiles on the lurch.
